1954 Map of Dixon

About this map

The town of Dixon serves as the focal point for this mid-century survey of the Ozark plateau, where the San Francisco And St Louis Railroad cuts through the high ground before the terrain drops into the winding river valleys below. To the south and east, the landscape becomes increasingly intricate as the Gasconade River and Big Piney River meander through deep hollows. This area is heavily wooded, marked by the boundaries of the Mark Twain National Forest and dotted with small rural communities like Powellville and Clementine.
