Comments:

  • Symbol added for roads "probably closed for construction". Otherwise virtually identical in format to the map issued in 1925.

A close-up (right) of an example of the new symbol for roads "probably closed for construction" introduced on the 1926 map, showing construction on State Highway 1 (future US 61) between Moose Lake and Carlton. Also note the detour via Cromwell and State Highway 2 (future Hwy 210).

A close-up of the new symbol in the map key (above).
