We all know that Harlem is bursting with history, not least of which is the that cultural movement known as the Harlem Reniassance, the “literary and intellectual flowering that fostered a new black cultural identity in the 1920s and 1930s”*.
Ephemera Press out of Brooklyn, a publishing company devoted to the celebrating the history of popular culture according to its website, sells a poster-quality illustrative map, beautifully highlighting geographical portraits of the Harlem Renaissance.
The back of the map also serves a walking tour guide. It’s a cartographic jewel well worth the money.
