1. Here is the full title: Correct Map of the Burlington and Missouri River R.R. [Railroad.] The Burlington Route and Its Connections. And the tag line: This Is the Great Through Car Line and Is Universally Conceded to Be the Finest Equipped Railroad in the World For All Classes of Travel. With such a modest statement, who could refrain from buying a ticket and heading west?
2. And look at the unusual color scheme. Yellow, green, a little orange, and tan.
3. The states west of the Missouri River are strangely distorted in their dimensions. Iowa put on quite a bit of weight as did Texas, Kansas, Nebraska and Montana. As if to make up for these distortions, states farther west are squashed lengthwise.
I suspect that whoever drew the original map had an accurate paper map of the East Coast and Midwest States, but had to guess about the rest of the Union based on faulty surveying and guesses.
Chuck's creative background is wide and varied. He was a professional violinist, a published author, a multilingual graphic designer, a community college teacher, a Lutheran (ELCA) pastor, and a book designer (interior and covers). As a result, his work could be broadly categorized as digital art. His graphic design influences his digital art; and his digital art has features of his design work. In other words, they overlap. Someone put it this way: "What you do is not traditional art, and it isn't strictly graphic design. It's somewhere in-between." Chuck says he couldn't have said it better.
