    I am guessing this map is from the early 1920's based on the tires shown. The miniature map is of Southern California and where the stores were located. At one time there were 2000 stores located through the USA. Sears bought Western Auto Supply in 1988.

      I like your map, I have a 1969 Western Auto Calender (Complete, all 12 months)
      in Excelent condition. Dn't know what it is worth but would like to know.

      DAB50, I check on Ebay and there a 1967 calendar for only $5.99 with 17 hours left for bidding. I don't think there a big market for Western Auto advertising. My folks owned a Western Auto store and the items I have are from them.

      This map is pre-1926, as the highways are not numbered, only named - such as "National Old Trails"
