| This map shows industrial points of interest in Superior. The top of the map reads: "Superior, Douglas County, Wisconsin, as this Industrial Tour map indicates, is beautifully situated and very secure, in its strategic position at the Head of America's greatest inland waterway system, the great Lakes. People, together with capital, industry and commerce, make Cities. It is merely a matter of a short time until Superior will become the terminal of the great Lakes-St. Lawrence Waterway, binging the ocean two thousand miles inland to the richest, largest developed and undeveloped inland empire, any port in the world has ever or will ever serve." The bottom of the map reads: "Tributary to Superior is an unexcelled farming country, and vacation land, Douglas County, of which Superior is the County seat. Agriculturally, it is probably the fastest growing county in the State. The leading industry is dairying, which returns over two million dollars each year to the farmers. For those tourists who like to follow historic trails, and for the vacationist who seeks the quiet seclusion of lakes and streams, there is a never ending series of recreations and delights in Douglas County and the surrounding territory that Superior serves. It is in this hinterland that the camper and the fisherman find that for which their hearts have yearned. ASK FOR OUR SCENIC TOUR MAP." The map is printed in brown ink. The back of the map has a list of attractions on the tour including: ore, coal, dry, and merchandise docks, Door Catch Factory, a factory that manufactures "Colored, Flavored Toothpick," a co-operative dairy, a chair factory, fair grounds, a broadcasting station, railroad yards, a briquet plant, and grain elevators. |
