Description

Scarce map of the United States, published in London.

The map includes several curious Territories and configurations:

  • Texas is shown in its pre-1850 configuration, before the Compromise of 1850 set the state boundary with New Mexico.
  • Iowa is oddly shaped.
  • There is no Minnesota Territory (created in 1849), but a large Dacota Territory is shown.
  • Nebraska Territory is shown (created in 1854).
  • Unusual Western Territory.

Were it not for Nebraska, we would have assumed the map was published in about 1848-50.

Condition Description
Moderate foxing and offsetting.
