Graphic Scale: Miles. Projection: Cylindrical. Printing Process: Lithography. Verso Text: MS note: 359324.

Visual Materials
No old shelf mark. An attempt to show the central character of Wildomar as half way between Los Angeles and San Diego, four hours by rail from either place. Wildomar was founded in 1885, and Orange County still does not appear on map, so the map probably predates 1889, when that county was created. Map based on an earlier map but with Lakeland and Wildomar added; for the original, see RB 359324 & ephMPCALIF0027. Prime meridian: GM. Relief: hachures. Graphic Scale: Miles. Projection: Cylindrical. Printing Process: Lithography.
