Vintage Canada Map & Brochure Lot of 17 – Royalite and Chevron Oil Maps, CN Across Canada, Red Cross Saskatchewan, Edmonton Transit 1989, Drumheller, Medicine Hat, Calgary, Prince Albert

Seventeen Canadian road maps, city maps and tourist brochures, sold as one lot — anchored by two oil-company maps. The Royalite four-province road map (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba) carries the big red Royalite "R" sign and "The Hallmark of Motoring Satisfaction," and there's a second Royalite, the Manitoba–Saskatchewan edition, whose back panel pitches "Everything for the Road PLUS… a Credit Card" over a sample Royalite credit card. The Chevron "Western Canada Points of Interest and Touring Map" (Standard Oil Company of California) wears painted Rockies art, a "Just Married" Beetle ad on the back, and a Kay Motors Ltd., Trail, B.C. dealer stamp. CN's "Across Canada" brochure shows the passenger train in the mountains. Saskatchewan gets a third star turn in the Red Cross "Life Saver Edition" road map — blizzard highway cover, Regina and Saskatoon Red Cross offices on the back — plus an Allmaps Saskatchewan–Manitoba map and a modern Tourism Prince Albert map. Alberta runs deep: an Edmonton Transit guide effective April 23, 1989 (cash fare $1.25), a T. rex Drumheller Valley guide, a Medicine Hat historic walking tour, a 1989–1990 Calgary tourist map, a Muttart Conservatory brochure, and GM Johnson and CAA Calgary street maps. National coverage comes from the Canadian Government Travel Bureau's 1971 Canada Highway Map (Western Sheet) and an Allmaps Canada map, with a Grey Bruce, Ontario tourist map for the eastern traveller. Roughly forty years of Canadian road travel in one lot.

Condition
Good condition overall. All pieces are complete and legible with strong cover art. The Royalite and Chevron oil maps show the expected fold-line wear, softening and light toning of working road maps; the Chevron cover carries its period dealer stamp (part of its history). Also noted: a previous owner's name on the Canada Highway Map cover, price stickers and handwriting on the Allmaps Saskatchewan–Manitoba cover, and a "TAXABLE" sticker on the Calgary map cover. The Prince Albert, GM Johnson and CAA maps are modern issues in clean condition. Please review all photos for the exact condition of each piece.
