Description

The final edition of Thayer's large pocket map of Colorado, published in Denver.

Thayer was one of the earliest map publishers in Colorado and without question the most active during the period. He initially published a Colorado map with Rufus Blanchard in Chicago in 1870-71, before relocating production to Denver.

The present example was likely sold at Swann Galleries, as indicated by a pencil note on the verso.

Condition Description
Original Green covers. A number of minor fold breaks and 1 larger 3 inch fold split, with some minor repairs on verso.

La Parte Occidentale Dell'Antico, E Nuovo Messico Con Florida E La Bassa Luigiana…. 1798 [California & The Southwest!]

La Parte Occidentale Dell'Antico, E Nuovo Messico Con Florida E La Bassa Luigiana Delineata sulle ultime Osservazioni, printed in Rome at the Calcografia Camerale in 1798 by Giovanni Maria Cassini, is a striking example of Cassini's work, detailing California, Arizona, New Mexico, parts of Texas, Baja California, and Mexico. This 18th-century map, possibly the sole instance from that era to feature a decorative cartouche and vignette, offers an intricate view of the region's geography, extending from the Rio Grande to the Colorado River, and the Gila River.
