This large scale map came from Rand McNallys Commercial Atlas of America. The Rand McNally Atlas was unusual for its time because it was designed to be used by merchants and shippers. Therefore this map is exceptionally detailed in that it shows every railroad, post office, and small town in existence at that time. It is possible that many towns shown in this map have since ceased to exist, or have been swallowed up by larger towns. This map is therefore the definitive reference for how the area looked at the beginning of the 20th century. This map has beautiful color and is folded at center as issued.The size of the map is 26 x 19. N° de ref. del artículo 70852

We are proud to offer this wonderful large scale map originally issued as part of Rand McNally's Commercial Atlas of America in 1919. The maps from this atlas were larger than most atlas' published at the time and show many more cities and towns. All railroad lines were drawn in red and numbered with a listing of all railroads operating in the area on each map. William H. Rand founded the company in 1856 and incorporated it in 1873 with his partner Andrew McNally. They published their first atlas, The Business Atlas, in 1877. Rand McNally and Company is the oldest business of its kind in the country. This map measures 19.5 by 0.25 inches. Nº de ref. del artículo: 124851
