Description

Rare. Untraced by Reps.

A small and rare bird's-eye view by the prolific American viewmaker J.J. Stoner showing the small town of Fairmont on the Nebraska plains.

Reps could not find any physical examples of the view recording (in entry 2111): "Locations: Unknown. Photo in Wilbur Gaffney (ed.), The Fillmore County Story, Geneva, Neb.: Geneva Community Grange No. 403, 1968, p. 134"

These smaller bird's-eye views of little towns on the Plains can be very rare and were no doubt produced in vanishingly small numbers to begin with. One wonders that the economics of production allowed for them at all.

Condition Description
Two-stone tinted lithograph on 19th-century wove paper. Minor dampstain.
Reference
Reps, Views and Viewmakers, 2111.

Johnson's Nebraska, Dakota, Montana and Kansas, published by Alvin Jewett Johnson & Benjamin P Ward in New York in 1864, captures a pivotal moment in the transformation of the American West. This scarce map, predating the formal delineation of Wyoming Territory, showcases Dakota Territory with its southern portions extended to embrace future Wyoming lands, emphasizing the nascent and ever-fluid nature of territorial definitions in the 19th century.
