Does anyone have an old or vintage type picture of downtown or bricktown I can use for an advertisement (royalty free)? Arial shot? Message me directly. Thank You!

Does anyone know where I could purchase a print of this? Hopefully poster sized or bigger.

It's the top option "Oklahoma City Birds-eye view"

Just an aside on the picture of the map presented here: unlike most maps the top of it is not north! I have the poster of this map; it takes a few minutes to orient yourself when looking at it because the "top" is west, but not true west! It's a fun map, but definitely an artist's rendition...and just to correct one misstatement on the map: in 1890, Oklahoma City was in "Oklahoma Territory," not "Indian Territory." Otherwise, it is very interesting and the legend gives locations that you can identify even today.
