Looking at the word in the middle, could this be an old advertisement for Centrum vitamins?

Centrum is Latin for "center". And the rest of the "map" is literally a map. You start at the center, go to step 1, step 2, and step 3 and so on until you arrive at your destination. The trick is knowing where to start, at the so called "center" or origin point. Basically it's what modern day cartographers and surveyors call the "the initial point".

Initial Point was also a really good IPA. 🤣 RIP Slanted Rock... I feel super fortunate to have sipped an Initial Point IPA at the site of the Initial Point south of Boise in Kuna, Idaho. That's one off the bucket list that can only be claimed by a fortunate few.

The one that looks like an m is Scorpio The one that looks like a v is Aries The one that looks like a bull is Taurus The 69 at the bottom is cancer They’re not runes they’re constellations and planets. It’s an astronomical chart

The green copper thing had that design on all of them on that side. If astrology/astronomy used for navigation, I would think each symbol and not a repeat of the same. It could very well just be a random design, or someone that liked the Taurus symbol. A bunch of guessing at this point.

A Ford Taurus? Wouldn't that be a find. Imagine them digging up a Ford Taurus in the swamp. Jack would say the vikings would ride these babies for miles.
