If you're thinking of popular maps, you're probably referring to the New Yorker cartoons that show the New Yorker's view of North America. If you're interested in scholarly works, try Downs, Roger M. and David Stea's "Maps in minds : reflections on cognitive mapping" New York : Harper & Row, c1977 or Gould, Peter R. and Rodney White's "Mental maps" Harmondsworth, Penguin, 1974.
