This map by Schaefer & Weisenbach Litho. and published by the American Publishing Co. purports to be an educational game for children.
I'm unsure how a game like this would be played, but the illustrations are charming, and remind me of similar pictures and childrens' atlases from my youth that I would pour over for hours.

It’s interesting that LA, NYC and Seattle are so small and that there is no Miami or Houston. However, what is Montpelier doing up on Lake Champlain – Burlington is supposed to be there!
