Notes:
From the 1920s to the 1940s, State Highway Commission maps appear frequently issued by other entities, with varying cover designs. A few common examples are AAA, various hotels and businesses, and local governments. Only the versions issued by the State Highway Commission are listed here.
 
For maps dated 1959 through 1965, the side with the words "Oregon State State Highway Commission" is described as the front cover. [1962] B is dated based on the status of I-5 construction compared to other maps.
 
How to tell the 1947 map apart from the 1948:
 
1. Commission members (1947 map): Banfield-Chessman-Schaupp. Commission members (1948 map): Banfield-Chandler-Schaupp
 
2. 1947 map has on the back a map of the western US (Chicago-Pacific) with distance lines running THROUGH Oregon in several directions. 1948 map has on the back the same map of the western US, with distance lines STOPPING at the Oregon borders.
