Description
A bright, whimsical chromolithographed map of the United States, designed for a children's game, but wonderful in its own right.
The principal cities of the US are depicted, as are natural resources or landmarks. Texas is shown with Indians chasing a large herd of buffalo. California is dominated by scenes of Yosemite. Also, at the bottom left is a large view of 4 Indians, with rifles, looking down anxiously at a train passing through a mountain pass. At the top right is a view of the Statue of Liberty.
The game went through several revisions between 1881 and 1890.
Condition Description
Segmented and laid on linen. Restoration in blank margins and along several folds.
