Scarce 1850 railroad map of New York by Cowperthwait

Item Details

Description

Sharp and colorful map of New York State with railroads highlighted by hand in orange-red to make them stand out. It is a testament to the importance of rail travel in the mid-19th century. Maps issued by Cowperthwait and Co. are considered by many map professionals as the finest maps produced in this era of mapmaking. Maps by Cowperthwait are desirable and difficult to find due to their short period of publication from 1850-1854. Shows and locates towns, cities, rivers, lakes, topography, canals, coastal features. Features a Profile of the famous Erie Canal and a table of Steam Boat Routes at right. Full original hand coloring. Many atlas maps of this period used just four colors to delineate county borders—Cowperthwait apparently liked the idea of five colors, which makes his maps stand above the rest. Few very light marks in lower left corner margin. 11.625 x 14
