I am posting today to talk about the congressional districts of the 93rd Congress (1973-1975). I found this on the Almanac of American Politics 1974. A lot of this information is difficult to find and I don't want you guys to waste your time, so all the information you need will be in these diaries.
I will start with California, the state with the most districts. The boundaries to California can be found on Wikipedia for each individual district. Today I will probably only state the first few districts as even then, the state had forty odd districts
