The life
active 1920s
Edwin Olsen drew pictorial maps in the 1920s. With Blake Clark he made A Kite View of Philadelphia and the Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition, published by Houghton Mifflin in Boston in 1926, a crowded bird’s-eye picture of the old city with the exposition in an inset. That map is inside our card, Independence Hall, Philadelphia.
