Tour with Confidence with Shell (c. 1930s–40s) by Don Bloodgood is a promotional illustrated map created for Shell Oil, designed to reassure motorists during the expanding era of American road travel. Produced in a bold commercial-graphic style, it features clear routes, regional highlights, and friendly visual cues that frame Shell services as reliable waypoints. The map combines simplified cartography with bright lithographic color, evoking efficiency, safety, and the optimism of early automotive tourism. Its upbeat imagery reflects the period’s enthusiasm for mobility and branded travel aids.
Don Bloodgood was an American commercial artist active in the mid-20th century, known for his clean, engaging graphics and advertising maps. His work often fused practical information with persuasive visual design, making complex layouts approachable to everyday consumers. Bloodgood’s contributions to corporate promotional art—especially in travel and transportation—showcase the era’s polished modernist sensibilities and the growing role of illustrated maps in marketing. His designs remain appreciated by collectors of vintage advertising and roadside Americana.
