"The Burlington Route". 1892.
Chicago: Rand, McNally. A wall map, 33 x 46 inches. Soft
printed color with some bold indicator hand color.
Original rods and hanging eyes present. Condition: Some
restoration and replacement at upper corners (4 x
½" area at left; 2 x 2" at right into
decorative area at right and 6 x ½" along margin);
a few very light blemishes. Deacidified, with muslin
backing. Now in very good condition; appearance is
excellent. Reference: Modelski (RR Maps of the US)
#357.
A
myriad of railroad lines are delineated throughout the
US and into adjacent Canada and Mexico. The Burlington
is shown in bold black, other lines in bold red, as are
the meridians every fifteen degrees of longitude
indicating time zones. Many rail stops are identified;
probably most in the western regions. Counties are
identified throughout. The date of the map is confirmed
by the county development in New Mexico and the Florida
east coast railroad the only reaches Titusville and
Orlando. Note Texas' claim on Oklahoma's Greer County.
Three engravings show the Burlington's passenger accommodations.
This handsome maps is ready to hang. |

UNITED
STATES. "United States." 1842. Jeremiah
Greenleaf; from
A New
Universal Atlas ...; Brattleboro, VT. 10¾ x 12½".
Original wash color by states. Condition: a stain in the
lower margin; otherwise very good. This
is one of the later maps to show some remaining strange
configurations, and undoubtedly is very little updated
from the Burr issue: Maine stretches north to the height
of land; Michigan's lower peninsula retains the strait
western shore causing a distorted lake; Missouri has yet
to reflect the Platt Purchase in the west; the
"Huron Territory" includes Wisconsin, the
upper peninsula, and stretches into present Minnesota. Railroads
are developing on the East Coast and in the Middle West,
especially in Illinois (but not to Chicago).
Pristine southern Florida appears as an
inset. |

Strange
priority system for placenames: Amherst, MA is
absent, but North Leverett, a
"suburb" and now a crossroads, is
present.
