Summary: | This image is sheet three of four maps by Hale drawn from an aerial photo which shows the old federal highway system in Baldwin County, Alabama, near the Mobile River. The map shows Highway 31 that runs side by side with a railroad. The map also shows the Swamp Line that delineates the swamp areas. The map has a detailed description of various physical features like rivers, creeks, lakes, ponds, swamps, bays, and islands. Other facilities like schools, cemeteries, camps, and fire lookout stations are depicted on the map. The map includes a number of numerical designations of unknown meaning. There is an "Auburn University Libraries, Auburn, Alabama, Map Collection" property stamp dated July 16, 1990, in the lower right, with the phrase "Sheet No. 3" right below it. Another phrase "Work sheet. Baldwin County. From Aerial Photos. Hale 1947" is located right above the bottom neat line. This map is a photocopy of a hand drawn blueprint and is not encapsulated. Except for some blue stains along the right side, the map is in fair condition.
