Original pictorial advertising map of Sanibel and Captiva Islands, on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Drawn and copyrighted by Marla Floyd and published in 1987 by A.C. Graphics of Miami, Florida. This scarce cartoon-like map includes a legend of almost sixty commercial locations on the two islands that appear on Floyd's map including: She Sells Sea Shells, Dairy Queen, Cheeburger Cheeburger, Buttonwood Bar B-Q, and the Chapel Cemetery & Library. Major geographic and touristic features include: Red Fish Pass, Blind Pass, Turner Beach, Bowman's Beach, and Buck Key.

On this interesting slice of Florida history seashells, waterfowl and fish abound along with drawings of local interest such as sea-shell collecting, snorkeling and of raccoons rifling a tin garbage can.
