From the Glen Helen Facebook Page:
Sometime around 1930, the Antioch Company produced a map of the Glen. The map labeled features such as the “Balanced Rock,” “Sunken Garden,” and “Underground Railroad.” It is believed that the map was originally designed to be a placemat in the Antioch College dining hall.
80 years later, this beautiful map has been rediscovered and reprinted -- A limited edition of 250 prints on 12- by 17-inch hand-made Okawara paper. Prints are available at the Glen Helen Nature Shop ($100 flat, $230 framed).
The company at the time the original was printed was The Antioch Bookplate Company. The Glen Helen Map reprint is a co-project of the Glen Helen Association and the YS Historical Society (which was the source of the printing plate). The map is also available from the Historical Society.
