Description
Rare Tanner Traveller's Map
Rare late separately issued example of example of Tanner's large format map of Missouri and Illinois, published in 1844.
The map has been significantly revised and improved since the original publication in the early 1820s. The counties in Illinois and Missouri are mostly complete and Illinois is now largely settled, although large parts of Missouri in the northwest and southwest part of the state are still sparsely populated.
While the earlier Tanner maps appear on the market occasionally, this 1844 edition is quite rare.
