Alice,

As for the commercial appearance of the map, a typical map company would
just apply data on top of (so to speak) existing covered maps, it being
too expensive to make anything else. The companies I've worked for do
the same thing even today.

    The map has such a commercial design aspect, I am doubtful about the
    historic family farm aspect. I just sense that Gousha created this on
    contract for some organization or government entity, accompanying a
    report or periodical article.
