| $170.00 | Motion-Picture-Industry-Guide-Service | Star-Home-Map-Beverly-Hills | Printed “Star Home Map” issued by the Motion Picture Industry Guide Service of Beverly Hills, identifying more than one hundred homes of motion-picture stars in Beverly Hills and the western Hollywood Hills. Numbered locations correspond to an index naming Clark Gable, Gary Cooper, Judy Garland, Tyrone Power, Loretta Young, and a young Elizabeth Taylor. Taylor’s inclusion—following her 1944 breakthrough in National Velvet—places this edition around 1944–45.

Printed in blue on yellow stock with whimsical patriotic artwork, the map reflects the early days of Hollywood tourism when visitors sought celebrity homes using printed street guides. An appealing survivor of mid-1940s film-era ephemera that captures the glamour and geography of the movie colony at its wartime peak.
