This is a historical map titled “Wet” and “Dry” Map of the United States, January 1, 1911. It visually depicts areas in the U.S. where alcohol sales and consumption were either allowed ("wet") or prohibited ("dry") by law during the early 20th century, prior to the nationwide Prohibition era.

The states and regions are colored to indicate the legislative stance on alcohol. Solid black areas represent “dry” regions where alcohol was banned, while lighter regions indicate “wet” zones where alcohol sales were permitted. This map highlights the growing influence of the temperance movement, which gained momentum in the years leading up to Prohibition. The map provides a symbolic snapshot of the social and political divisions around alcohol regulation in the U.S. during that time.

The image is a historical map titled "WET AND DRY MAP OF THE UNITED STATES, JANUARY 1, 1911." It depicts the status of prohibition in various parts of the United States at that time. The map uses shading to differentiate between "wet" and "dry" areas. "Wet" areas, where the sale of alcohol was permitted, are represented in dark shading or solid colors, while "dry" areas, where alcohol sales were restricted or prohibited, are shown in lighter shading or white. The map presents the contiguous United States, with state borders clearly outlined, and within each state, there are smaller patches indicating counties or regions that were either wet or dry. The map reflects the patchwork of local laws regarding alcohol sales prior to the nationwide prohibition that began in 1920.

The image shows a black and white map of the United States from January 1, 1911. The map is titled "'Wet' and 'Dry' Map of the United States, January 1, 1911".

The map divides the country into various regions, with each state labeled. Some states and regions are shaded in black, while others are left white. Based on the title, this shading likely indicates whether each state was "wet" (allowing alcohol sales) or "dry" (prohibiting alcohol sales) at the start of 1911, several years before nationwide Prohibition began.

The detailed shading pattern reveals the patchwork of alcohol laws across the country at that time, with many states, especially in the South, already having "dry" laws, while states in the Northeast, Midwest and West were still "wet". It provides an interesting historical snapshot of the state-by-state progress of the temperance movement in the early 20th century leading up to Prohibition.

This is a historical map of the United States from January 1, 1911, showing "wet" and "dry" areas during the period leading up to Prohibition. The dark areas represent "wet" regions where alcohol was legal, while the white or light areas represent "dry" regions where alcohol was prohibited. The map shows significant variation across the country, with large portions of the western states like Montana and Arizona appearing "wet," while many southern and northeastern states have substantial "dry" areas. The map provides an interesting snapshot of alcohol regulation in America nearly a decade before national Prohibition went into effect. It illustrates how alcohol prohibition was already in place in various regions before the 18th Amendment was ratified in 1919.

The image is a map of the United States, titled "WET" AND "DRY" MAP OF THE UNITED STATES, JANUARY 1, 1911. The map is divided into states, with some states shaded in black and others left white. The shaded states are labeled as "DRY", while the unshaded states are labeled as "WET". The map appears to be a historical document, likely created to illustrate the legal status of alcohol prohibition in each state at the time.

The map shows that the majority of states were "WET" (unshaded), indicating that they allowed the sale and consumption of alcohol. In contrast, the "DRY" states (shaded) had laws prohibiting the sale and consumption of alcohol. The map also highlights the regional variations in alcohol laws, with the Northeast and Midwest having more "DRY" states than the South and West.

Overall, the map provides a visual representation of the complex and varied landscape of alcohol laws in the United States during the early 20th century. It suggests that while some states had strict laws prohibiting alcohol, others had more lenient laws allowing its sale and consumption.

Here's a description of the image:

The image is a black and white map of the United States, labeled "Wet" and "Dry" Map of the United States, January 1, 1911." The map is a representation of the legal status of alcohol sales in the country at that time.

  • Color Coding: The map uses a visual coding system to differentiate between "wet" and "dry" areas:

    • States or areas in black show "dry" territories, meaning the sale of alcohol was prohibited.
    • States or areas in white show "wet" territories, meaning the sale of alcohol was allowed.
  • Details: The map is very detailed. The states are labeled with their names, and there is an indication of which areas within the states are "wet" or "dry" and the area that the sale of alcohol is prohibited by law. The pattern may suggest how Prohibition progressed.

  • Historical Context: This map likely represents the situation before or during the early stages of the Temperance movement and the eventual national Prohibition in the United States, which began in 1920. The "dry" areas suggest the geographical spread of anti-alcohol sentiments and the legal restrictions that were starting to be implemented.
