Scarce 1855 map of U.S. w/large territorial borders

Item Details

Description

Scarce and collectible 1855 example of Cowperthwait, Desilver & Butler map of the U.S., at a time when the west was experiencing some of its most unusual US territorial configurations. Oregon Territory and Washington Territory stretch from the Pacific Ocean to the Rocky Mountains, immediately after the creation of Washington Territory. Large New Mexico and Utah Territories appear for the first time, having just been established as territories in 1850. Massive Nebraska Territory extends to Canada and the Rocky Mountains, just north of the oversized Kansas Territory. Texas shows many early roads, including a road from Ft. Smith to Dona Ana made by General Arbuckle. The Great Spanish Trail to Salt Lake is shown, as is Fremont's route. Lewis & Clark's route is noted. Many Indian tribes and early Western Forts are also depicted. Large inset of the Gold Region following the recent discovery of gold in California. Map is dated 1850 and comes from an early edition of the 1855 New Universal Atlas by Cowperthwait, Desilver & Butler. There were two editions of this atlas that year—this is from the earlier edition (maps by Cowperthwait, Desilver & Butler are scarcer than Cowperthwait versions of this map). Pea-size repaired hole in lower right frame. Minor staining at bottom margin; repaired small tear at bottom centerfold; few tiny chips. 16 x 22.5
