"This map was published 28 years after the first black and white version and reduced in size with all the details the same except for the items listed below. This version was colored in by Ferdinand Bergdorf one of many close friends Jo had in Carmel" (Jon Gilmore M6). One update was the text on the small airplane, which was changed from Scenic Airways to Grand Canyon Airplanes. Edits were made to the reference in the bottom left image, as well as the "Fred Harvey" garage in the lower left image, which used to be "The Harvey Garage" (Ibid.).
