Map in Boards. Condizione: Good. First This Illustrated Edition. Undated but references the 1880 census data for some of the material covered, which is quite extensive. The map shows all of the states from the eastern seaboard west to parts of; CO, MT, NM, TX. It appears the map was whole at one point and glued by the publisher…to the rear cover board over the area which contained the larger portion of Colorado. On most maps, during that time, Oklahoma was still called 'Indian Territory'. Around 1890 this changed to 'The Oklahoma Indian Territory' and then just 'Oklahoma in 1907 when the area became a state. This multi-colored map measures approx. 36" wide x 24" tall folded into boards that are 4" x 8.25". There are 24 large ads (most are 2" x 3", few are illustrated, 19 on map side on top and bottom edges) and 200+ text listings of businesses, A-Z on the verso. Apparently this issue is just for the Boston, MA area as it is titled 'Boston Representative Business Houses' in the upper left-hand corner. Also tables and statistical statements, many regarding businesses; wages, religious afiliations, populations, Opera huoses, Places of Amusements, Ferries, etc. Several tears and very minor loss at a few fold junctions. A nice framable size for this early colored map of the US. NOTE: No copies were found on Worldcat for this map, likewise none on any retail book or map site. We did fine one dated 1886 at another retail business which had been sold. It was was dated (1886) this one is 3 years earlier in 1883, perhaps the first one by this publisher. Colored Map (illustratore).

Soft cover. Good. Some mended splits, and minor loss at junctures of folds. Size 27 x 12.5 Inches. This is a scarce 1889 Rand McNally map of the Pacific Coast of North America, produced to promote the Pacific Coast Steamship Company just a few years prior to the Klondike gold rush. Coverge embraces the Pacific Coast from the Mex…ican border to British Columbia and Vancouver Island. An inset details from that point north to 'Mousouah Lake' (Mosquito Lake) in Alaska. A Tourist Brochure The target audience for this map was primarily tourists: the verso text pitches a month-long sightseeing journey to Alaska from San Francisco, and the illustrations on the map's covers and cartouche highlight the dramatic vistas. The map's cartouche offers a vignette of the Thousand Islands as viewed from Sitka, while the front cover presents a view of the steamship Idaho navigating Glacier Bay. (For those desiring a warmer journey, the brochure does not neglect the company's southern routes: the back cover shows a fashionable woman and her daughters perambulating Santa Barbara's palm tree orchard.) Rich in Data The map marks out both express and local routes north and south from San Francisco, and features tables indicating distances. The verso details ticket prices, schedules, and ticket agents. The verso text also includes detailed descriptions of featured destinations. The Pacific Coast Steamship Company When this brochure was published, the company was running two steamboats up the coast to Alaska. One of these, the Ancon , would have its career cut short later the same year when it ran aground and broke in Loring, Alaska (happily, without casualty). Since we see editions of this map produced as late as 1911, it must be presumed that this disaster did not ruin the company and that the tourist trade (and the subsequent Yukon Gold Rush) was able to keep them busy. We are left to speculate what other cargos the Steamship Company carried: the ship depicted in the Glacier Bay vignette, the Idaho , had been caught smuggling opium in the early 1880s. Publication History and Census OCLC lists thirteen examples of this map in seven editions ranging between 1886 and 1911. Only two examples of the 1889 edition were located, one at the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park and the other at the Wisconsin Historical Society Library.

Very good. Even overall toning. Text on verso. Size 26.5 x 20 Inches. This is a beautiful example of Rand McNally and Company's 1892 map of Brazil and Guiana. The map depicts from the Orinoco River in Venezuela to Do Sul, including British, Dutch and French Guiana. An inset in the lower right quadrant details the western portion… of Brazil. Part of neighboring Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina, and Uruguay are also featured. This map was printed shortly after Brazil was declared a Republic following the abdication of Emperor Pedro II. Several Indian tribes are identified throughout. The Marshes of Xarayes are also labeled. Color coded according to countries, the map notes several towns, cities, rivers, mountains, and various other topographical details with relief shown by hachure.

Very good. Light wear along original folds. Map on verso. Size 10 x 15.5 Inches. An impressive 1975 map and view of the Grand Canyon, produced for tourists by Rand McNally and the Fred Harvey Company. A Closer Look The map covers the Grand Canyon centered on the Colorado River, with the location of various notable creeks, rapids…, buttes, cliffs, 'temples,' 'shrines,' 'castles,' and other features in the canyon noted (this unusual nomenclature was the legacy of geologist Clarence Dutton, who played an important role in familiarizing the American public with the grandeur of the canyon). Roads and trails are also indicated, as are buildings, including the collection of buildings on the canyon's South Rim (South Rim Village). Among these are buildings operated by the Fred Harvey Company, including the El Tovar Hotel, Hopi House, and Bright Angel Lodge. The verso consists of a bird's-eye view of the South Rim Village, again highlighting the facilities operated by the Fred Harvey Company. The Fred Harvey Company The Fred Harvey Company was founded by its namesake owner in 1875 as a hospitality business operating along the lines of the expanding railroad network in the Western United States, particularly the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railway, with which Harvey eventually developed a special contractual relationship. Building restaurants and later hotels, dubbed Harvey Houses, within or adjacent to train stations, especially in smaller towns, Harvey developed a reputation for providing fast, efficient, and clean service to weary travelers. At its peak, the Fred Harvey Company ran 84 hotels and restaurants along the railway from Topeka to San Francisco, with many locations in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. Later, the company expanded into demonstrations of Native American crafts and 'Indian Detours,' which took tourists in private 'Harvey Cars' from rail stops into Indian Country. Thus, the Harvey company was an integral part of tourism and migration to the American West at the turn of the 20th century. The Grand Canyon took on special significance for the Fred Harvey Company, as it was the main tourist destination reached by the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe (via the Grand Canyon Railway, completed 1905, which was an extension of the pre-existing Santa Fe and Grand Canyon Railroad, constructed for mining purposes). The Harvey Company built restaurants and lodges, operated the aforementioned automobile coach service, and sold souvenirs to tourists at the Grand Canyon. Perhaps the most impressive operation was the El Tovar Hotel, built directly on the South Rim of the canyon near the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe's Grand Canyon Depot. In the mid-20th century, the company expanded further, building or acquiring hotels and restaurants throughout the West, Midwest, and Plains States, including the famous Furnace Creek Inn in Death Valley. In 1968, after the death of Fred Harvey's grandson, the Fred Harvey Company was purchased by American Factors (Amfac, Inc., renamed Xanterra Travel Collection in 2002). Today, Xanterra continues to operate several former Harvey Houses, including El Tovar, while others have been converted to museums or for other uses. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by Rand-McNally for the Fred Harvey Company, while the view on the verso is not attributed. It is undated, but the designation at bottom-right, along with context and the style of the map and text suggest a date of 1975. Maps with this title were produced between the early 1970s and early 1990s, and the present edition is noted among the collections of eight institutions in the OCLC. References: OCLC 7668886.

Very good. Light wear along original fold lines. Maps of the United States and Salt Lake City on verso. Accompanied by original binder. Size 27.25 x 21.25 Inches. This is a 1924 Rand McNally road map of Utah. Distributed by the Continental Oil Company, the map highlights Utah's highway network. Several named highways traverse th…e state, including the Lincoln Highway and the National Park to Park Highway, and are marked by small bold placards along the routes. Cities and towns throughout the state are identified, with the largest cities (such as Salt Lake City) appearing in the largest text. Populations are noted next to many cities and towns, and distances between them are provided. Mountains, lakes, and other landmarks are identified. Advertisements for Conoco Gasoline and the Continental Oil Company occupy the top portion of the sheet above the map. Verso Content Two maps occupy the verso. One is a map of Salt Lake City, which identifies major roadways and railroads within the city. The second is a map of the United States highlighting national parks and monuments across the country. Major parks, such as Yellowstone and Yosemite, are marked using diagonal lines to fill in their area. Forty-eight other parks are marked by stars and numerically identified. These numbers correspond with a key situated in the lower left corner. Twenty-seven named highways across the country, such as the Lincoln Highway, the Dixie Highway, and the Atlantic-Pacific Highway, are illustrated and numerically identified. The corresponding index occupies the lower right corner. Publication History and Census This map was created and published by Rand McNally in 1924 and distributed by the Continental Oil Company. We note a single cataloged example in OCLC which is part of the collection at the Newberry Library. References: OCLC 993879837.

Very good. Light wear along original fold lines. Exhibits slight loss at fold intersections. Map of southeastern United States on verso. Size 26.5 x 29.25 Inches. This is a c. 1940 Rand McNally and Pure Oil map of Florida. 'Main through routes', as they are referred to in the key, are illustrated by thick red lines, allowing the… traveler or tourist in possession of this map to easily identify the best way to their destination. These were also known as interstate highways, which are different from today's interstates, which did not begin construction until 1956 under the auspices of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. State highways are illustrated by blue lines, with thinner lines marking roads of less dependable grades. Cities and towns throughout the state are labeled, and distances between them are provided as well. Points of interest, including state parks and many tourist attractions, are all labeled in red, allowing them stand out. An inset map of western Florida is situated in the Gulf of Mexico and a mileage table and short descriptions of places of interest in Florida occupy the lower right quadrant. Dating the Map As this map is undated, precisely dating the map is difficult. We believe that the presence of the old Florida State Road numbering system, which we noticed because the Overseas Highway is labeled here as Highway 4A, that this map dates from around 1940. Florida State Roads were renumbered in 1945. Marineland of Florida, situated along the coast between Saint Augustine and Daytona Beach, was a popular tourist attraction opened in Florida in 1938, and thus we have postdated the map slightly to account for its presence on the map. Publication History and Census This map was created by Rand McNally and published by the Pure Oil Company c. 1940. We have been unable to locate any other examples.

Good. Some wear along original fold lines. Verso repairs to fold separations. 2 closed tears each extending 2 inches into printed area professionally repaired on verso. Old adhesive evident on verso. Size 20 x 26 Inches. This is a 1958 Rand McNally map of the Solar System. A Closer Look The map focuses on the Solar system, illus…trating the planets, with moons orbiting Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The distance in miles between the orbits is provided, as is the distance traveled in each orbit, the length of time spent in one orbit (given in Earth years), and the time it takes for each planet to complete one revolution. The asteroids Ceres and Eros are illustrated in the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter, and a note states that between 1,500 and 50,000 asteroids are known to exist within the belt. Other celestial formations are noted as well, including Antares, Magellanic clouds, the Crab Nebula, and the Andromeda Galaxy. Text boxes and inset views create a frame and provide information concerning interplanetary and intergalactic distances, the relative size of the planets in the Solar System, an artist's rendering of Eros and Ceres, a chart of interplanetary weights, and artist renderings of a volcanic eruption on Mercury, canals on Mars, the Rings of Saturn, methane storms on Venus, Jupiter's Great Red Spot, and Earth as seen from the Moon. Publication History This map was created and published by Rand McNally and Company in 1958. At least three different states of this map were published with the same copyright date (1958). There were no major changes in the content of the map between states, the only alteration being to the map's title. An edition (of which the presently offered example is extant) was published at a reduced size.

Very good. Newsprint. Light wear along original centerfold. Closed minor margin tears professionally repaired on verso. Loss to lower right margin corner not effecting printed area. Old tape repairs evident on verso. Size 16.75 x 22 Inches. This is a 1940 Rand McNally and Chicago Sunday Tribune map of Europe during World War II…(1939 - 1945). This map, published on May 19, 1940, appeared nine days after Germany invaded Belgium, the Netherlands, and France. It highlights fortifications and air and naval bases throughout Europe and across the Mediterranean Sea in Europe and the Middle East. History as it Happened At the time of publication, readers in Chicago were likely following events in Europe with trepidation, as the western Allies had been dealt defeat after defeat at the hands of the German army. The world believed France militarily unassailable behind stalwart and well-planned defenses. However, only weeks after this piece appeared on street corners in Chicago, all three countries fell to the German onslaught. A Closer Look Icons mark naval (anchor) and air (plane) bases across Europe. Artillery pieces highlight fortifications, including the Maginot and Siegfried lines. These two celebrated fortifications are also highlighted in France and Germany by notations indicated in the legend in the lower left. Fortifications, air, and naval bases are marked in the Middle East and North Africa as well. Publication History and Census This map was created by Rand McNally and Company and published by the Chicago Sunday Tribune on May 19, 1940. We note a single cataloged example which is part of the collection at the Newberry Library. References: OCLC 1032553536.

Very good. Dissected and laid on linen. Some discoloration at top margin and top-left. Size 32 x 22.5 Inches. Here is a large-scale linen-backed folding wall map of North America produced by Rand McNally and Co. c. 1949. Both attractive and comprehensive, it combines political, topographical, and other information in a style cha…racteristic of the 'Ranally' series produced in the mid-20th century. A Closer Look This is a versatile map in every sense. It can be folded onto itself and carried in one arm but also has grommets installed at the top corners for wall hanging. It includes a wide variety of information on political boundaries, cities, transportation, topography, and maritime navigation (a notable feature is the inclusion of ocean depths). Insets are provided at top-left and at bottom-right, respectively depicting the Aleutian Islands and Puerto Rico with the Lesser Antilles. The provinces of Canada and the states and territories of the U.S. and Mexico are indicated. The map employs Lambert azimuthal equal area projection, with a point of tangency located near Bismarck, North Dakota, at roughly the mid-point of the continent. This projection is especially well-suited to the mapping of hemispheres and continents (as opposed to the entire globe). Publication History and Census This map was produced by Rand-McNally in or around the year 1949, number 'RB100' in the Ranally series of the company's political-physical maps. It is only cataloged among the holdings of the University of Denver and Syracuse University, and is scarce to the market. References: OCLC 933302618.

Very good. Light wear along original fold lines. Advertisement on verso. Accompanied by original binder. Size 13.25 x 19 Inches. Celebrating Ohio's centennial, this 1888 Whitely and Rand McNally map of Ohio recognizes one of Ohio's most successful businesses, Whiteley's. Amos Whitely and his brother William operated farm equipme…nt businesses in Springfield, Ohio after William patented improvements to the reaper, a grain and grass harvester. William's invention garnered worldwide attention and earned him the nickname 'Reaper King'. An advertisement for Whiteley's occupies the entire verso. A Closer Look The map focuses on the Ohio railroad network, with each line identified by name. The highlight is an advertisement for Amos Whiteley's solid steel mower in the lower right. Publication History and Census This map was created by Rand McNally and Company and published by Amos Whiteley and Company in 1888. We note three examples cataloged in OCLC: Cleveland Public Library, the Ohio History Connection, and the University of Michigan. An example is also part of the David Rumsey Map Collection.

Very good. Exhibits wear along original fold lines. Verso repair at a fold intersection and at fold separations. Closed margin tear professionally repaired on verso. Text and printed maps on verso. Size 39.75 x 17.75 Inches. This is a c. 1950s Rand McNally pictorial road map of Florida designed for the Gulf Oil Corporation. The…map depicts the state from Tallahassee and the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean and from Georgia to Key West. Highly detailed, myriad cities and towns throughout Florida are labeled, including Tallahassee, Tampa, St. Petersburg, Orlando, Jacksonville, West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami. Everglades National Park occupies a large portion of the southern part of the state, while other national forests, state parks, and state forests are scattered throughout. Other tourist destinations, such as the Devil's Punch Bowl, the circus winter quarters, and the Ocean Beach Speedway are highlighted by small, eye-catching vignettes. Florida is a major destination for fishing enthusiasts, and this map highlights thirty-two different species of fish that could be caught in Florida's rivers and lakes, as well as along its coastlines. Publication History and Census This map was designed by Rand McNally for the Gulf Oil Company and published in the 1950s. At least two states of this map were published. One state (of which the offered example is representative) includes an inset key map to the right of the map's title. On the other state this key map is absent. Unfortunately we are not certain which state precedes the other.

Very good. Light wear along original fold lines. Text on verso. Size 21.25 x 34 Inches. This is a 1944 pictorial highway map of the state of Washington, prepared by Rand McNally for the Washington Department of Highways. A Closer Look Bright red highlights state highways, with notations indicating road grades (double pavement, p…aved, improved, and dirt roads). Cities and towns are labeled throughout the state, with Spokane, Seattle, and Tacoma appearing in large bold lettering. Bright red areas highlight Mount Rainier National Park and Olympic National Park. Counties are divided by yellow lines to allow for differentiation. The whole is surrounded by a pictorial border featuring images of Olympic National Park, Grand Coulee, Mount Rainier, Yakima Canyon, and the Grand Coulee Dam, along with others. Verso Content The verso contains information provided by the Automobile Club of Washington, the local affiliate of the Automobile Association of America (AAA), including the state's motor vehicle regulations and information for dealing with Canadian customs when crossing the border. Promotional text also discusses various attractions in the 'evergreen playground,' such as Puget Sound, Mount Rainier, and the Grand Coulee Dam, which had only become operational two years prior. A mileage chart with distances between various sites and cities in Washington appears near the title panel. Four inset maps of Tacoma, Seattle, Bellingham, and Yakima appear at the bottom right. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by Rand McNally and Company, lithographed by the North Pacific Bank Note Company, and published in 1944 by the State of Washington Department of Highways and AAA. Editions of this map were published in 1939, 1941, 1942, 1944, and 1949 (all of which have been digitized by the Washington State Department of Transportation Library), leading to some confusion in catalog listings. In fact, there are two 1944 printings, one with images and photographs on the verso published solely by the Department of Highways and the present example with information for AAA on the verso. From one edition to the next, the map appears to be unchanged while the verso content differs. Nonetheless, the map is scarce on the market, and the OCLC seems to record both 1944 printing in only six institutions, while an example is also held by the Washington State Department of Transportation Library (with the Department of Highways verso) and the David Rumsey Historical Map Collection.

Very good. Some wear along fold lines and offsetting. Size 17.5 x 31 Inches. A 1942 World War II era Rand McNally map of the United States issued for the Union Pacific Railroad. It notes the locations of military facilities and highlights the contributions of the Union Pacific to the war effort. A Closer Look Black lines trace t…he Union Pacific network and associated lines, marked as either single or double track, while lighter gray lines represent the trackage of other companies. Military bases, airfields, forts, naval bases, and other facilities are indicated with red squares, airplanes, and anchors. Inset maps at the bottom-left and bottom-right illustrate connecting shipping lines across the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Rivers, mountains, cities, national parks, and state borders are also indicated. The verso includes an extensive list of military installations organized alphabetically, a list of Union Pacific offices around the country, and a section describing Union Pacific's contributions to the war effort. American Railroads and World War II During World War I (1914 - 1918), American railroad lines were nationalized and placed under the management of the United States Railroad Administration. This system was unwound after the Great War, scarcely two years after its establishment. Still, in its brief existence, the U.S.R.A. oversaw important investments in rail infrastructure, standardization measures, and regulatory changes. However, the interwar period was difficult for the railroads, especially passenger rail, as competition from automobiles and aviation, along with the Great Depression, hurt ridership. Still, the continued oversight and standardization of the rail network (by the Interstate Commerce Commission) proved to be a boon during World War II (1939 - 1945), obviating the need for another wartime nationalization while allowing for the smooth interaction of various private railroads to support the war effort. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by Rand McNally and Company and issued by the Union Pacific Railroad in 1942. The copyright names C. J. Collins, the company's General Passenger Traffic Manager, also credited in several other contemporanous maps and publications. Union Pacific had issued several editions of its 'Geographically Correct Map of the United States' prepared by Rand McNally in the 1920s and 1930s. The present example is a significantly modified wartime edition, touting the Union Pacific network as 'The Strategic Middle Route.' The present edition is listed in the OCLC among the holdings of the University of California Santa Cruz, the University of Kansas, Missouri State University, and the University of Michigan.

Very good. Some toning at bottom-left along fold lines and in margin. Size 26 x 19 Inches. A 1910 Rand McNally pocket-style folding map of Montana. It presents geographic, administrative, and economic information in rich detail, combining utility and aesthetics. A Closer Look This map covers the state of Montana identifying coun…ties, rivers, topography, and railroads, which are listed in red text at bottom-right. Cities and towns are listed at top-left according to their population and are given a coordinate corresponding to the numbered and lettered grid system in the margins. It includes several national parks, national forests, and Indian reservations. These systems were quite young and still evolving, with borders and names changing frequently. For example, both the Big Hole and Hell Gate National Forests southeast of Missoula were divvied up in 1908 and reapportioned to other nearby parks, so that Bitter Root (now stylized as Bitterroot) National Forest extended into southwestern Montana. Historical Context At this time, Montana was still in the early phase of statehood and becoming more integrated with the economy and infrastructure of surrounding states. The recent tumult of the Indian Wars and the rapid increase in white settlers (many seeking gold) in the late 19th century would have been fresh in people's minds. The railroads and the confinement of Native Americans to reservations led to a continual increase in white settlers, who then demanded more land, coming into conflict with native peoples and restoking tensions. Pitched battles had been fought as recently as 1887 (the Battle of Big Hole) and legal disputes continued, as additional land was sheaved off from reservations. For instance, in 1904 the U.S. Congress passed an act 'allotting' land in individual parcels to indigenous people on the Flathead Indian Reservation and then claiming the remaining communal land, roughly one-half of the reservation's land, to be 'surplus,' which was then doled out to white settlers. Then in 1908, a skirmish (known as the Swan Valley Massacre) occurred between Pend d'Oreilles hunters and a Montana state game warden. The hunters resided on the Flathead Reservation but had treaty rights to hunt beyond its borders, a fact that irritated nearby white settlers. The game warden and an armed posse tried to chase off the Pend d'Oreilles several times, and eventually resorted to shooting, leaving four Native Americans and the warden dead. In the early 20th century, provisions were made in adjustments to the Homestead Act to offer ever larger tracts of land to homesteaders, mostly from the Midwest, to settle in Montana. Large-scale irrigation projects also facilitated agriculture and attracted settlers. Meanwhile, mining moved beyond gold prospecting to coal, copper, and oil, and incorporated advanced technologies, while the vast forests of western Montana were the source for a timber boom that lasted several decades. The development of railroads both facilitated and intensified these processes. Publication History and Census This map was published by Rand, McNally, and Co. in 1910, based on their New Business Atlas map of Montana. Two copyrights are indicated here, suggesting that an existing 1909 map was updated in 1910, primarily to incorporate data from the 1910 census. Rand McNally maps of Montana in this format, as a separate issue with a title including 'Indexed County and Township Pocket Map and Shippers Guide,' date from the 1880s and to the mid-1910s, though they do not always include a dated copyright. Despite the wide date range, they are relatively scarce. We note three examples of the 1910 edition cataloged in OCLC: University of Texas at Arlington, Brigham Young University, and the University of Utah. References: OCLC 44878972.
