Description
Rare lithographed map of Saint Paul, Minnesota, by one of St. Paul's greatest mapmakers. The city is rendered in subdivision-, plot-, and sometimes building-level detail. Como Park, Summit Avenue, and the "New State Capitol Site" are shown - the "new" Minnesota State Capitol was finished in 1905.
Rice differentiated this map from his "Index Map of St. Paul" by calling it "Rice's No. 2 Map of St. Paul", as seen on the covers here.
The map shows Fort Snelling with both the fort and an area labeled "Headquarters Department of Dakota".
Rarity
OCLC records a single example (at MNHS) of the 1896 Index map, but none of this edition of Rice's "No. 2" map.
Condition Description
Folding map with original printed covers. Lithograph printed in black and green.
