A Map of Well Known Salt Water Game Fish of North America.

A Map of Well Known Salt Water Game Fish of North America is a pictorial map created by Richard Bishop and Joseph P. Sims, published in 1936 from a design dating to approximately 1935. The work combines cartography and natural-history illustration to celebrate North America's rich marine fishing grounds. The continent is presented at the center, while detailed depictions of 26 saltwater game fish surround the map. Each species is accompanied by a small range map, creating an engaging blend of scientific information, recreational guidance, and decorative artistry. The vibrant composition reflects the growing popularity of sport fishing and outdoor leisure during the early twentieth century.

Richard Bishop was a noted artist renowned for his sporting, wildlife, and maritime subjects, particularly fish and waterfowl. Working alongside Joseph P. Sims, he helped produce a map that merged artistic excellence with educational value. Their collaboration exemplifies the golden age of pictorial cartography, when maps served not only as geographic references but also as celebrations of natural resources, recreation, and regional identity.
