1915 New England Golf Map – Country Clubs & Automobile Roads – Restored Print
24 x 24"
You are looking at a beautifully restored reproduction of Hodgman's 1915 New Map Showing Location and Classification of the Golf and Country Clubs of New England with Automobile
Roads and Distances — a genuinely scarce cartographic document from a pivotal moment in American sporting history.
In 1915, golf was sweeping across New England. Wealthy industrialists and emerging middle-class sportsmen alike were joining the hundreds of clubs that had sprung up across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Hodgman's Golf Tours by
Automobile — headquartered at 286 Fifth Avenue, New York — published this map so that touring golfers could plan road trips from club to club, distances in hand, at a time when the automobile itself was still a novelty.
This map captures that precise moment: the automobile and the country club arriving together. It is both a golf document and a road map, a social artifact as much as a cartographic one.
