Description
An extremely rare map of Johnson’s Nebraska, Dakota, Idaho and Montana by A. J. Johnson. When the maps were being printed for this 1867 version of Johnson’s New Illustrated Family Atlas, a mistake was made at the printer and this singular map was produced on heavy card stock. It is possibly the only version in existence like this. In fact, there may be no Johnson maps of any kind on heavy card stock like this one. The map is highly detailed, with silver and gold mines located in Idaho, Montana, Arizona and Colorado. Numerous Indian tribes, forts, explorers’ routes and other details are delineated, such as railroads, topography, rivers, etc. Early appearance of Wyoming on a map -- so early, it’s not been added to the map title. Features rich, original hand coloring. Johnson’s Nebraska, Dakota, Idaho and Montana by A. J. Johnson. This is the second state of the map, moving parts of Madison County and Beaver Head from Wyoming to Montana. Pre-dates Yellowstone. Yellowstone Lake is shown as Subletts Lake and is pushed far to the west of its actual location. The region between the Yellowstone River and the North Platte is largely uncharted. Dakota and Wyoming still have no counties. There are only five counties in Idaho and only nine in Montana. Incredibly clean map with minor toning to edges. 17 x 23.25
