The Tourist Map of Mallorca (Majorca), 1960 is a vibrant mid-century cartographic celebration of the Balearic island at the dawn of its modern tourism era. Created during a pivotal decade when Mallorca was transforming from a relatively quiet Mediterranean enclave into an international destination, this map captures both geographic detail and the optimistic visual language of postwar travel design.

Rendered in bright, inviting colors, the island is depicted with playful yet informative clarity. Coastal contours are carefully articulated, highlighting dramatic cliffs, sheltered coves, sandy beaches, and natural harbors. Inland, stylized mountain ranges evoke the Serra de Tramuntana, while roads wind across the terrain, linking historic towns and seaside resorts. Key locations such as Palma, Alcúdia, Sóller, and Manacor are clearly identified, reflecting the growing infrastructure that supported tourism in the 1960s.

What distinguishes this map is its pictorial charm. Small illustrations—boats skimming the coastline, fishermen at work, windmills turning in the breeze, and sun-seekers enjoying the beaches—animate the landscape. These decorative elements transform the map into both a navigational tool and a promotional poster, embodying the aspirational spirit of Mediterranean leisure. Typography typical of the period, often bold and slightly playful, reinforces its graphic appeal.

As a historical artifact, the 1960 Capó map offers insight into Mallorca before large-scale development reshaped many coastal areas. It documents road networks, town names, and geographic features as they were understood at mid-century, providing valuable context for collectors and historians alike.
