Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Very good. Even overall toning. Minor imperfections, mostly confined to margins. Size 12.75 x 10.75 Inches. This is Jeremiah Greenleaf's 1849 map of Illinois. It appeared in his Universal Atlas and is notable for its level of detail. A Closer Look The state of Illinois is displayed with counties shaded different colors for easy differentiation. Settlements, waterways (including canals), roads, swamps, and more are indicated throughout in great detail. The state's first railroad, the Northern Cross Railroad, only opened the previous year, is seen connecting Meredosia with Springfield. Chicago, only chartered two years earlier but growing quickly at this time, is seen at top-right. Just north of Chicago is a dotted line 'Indian Boundary of 1829,' which replaced an earlier Indian Boundary established in 1816. Both boundaries were quickly violated by White settlers. Tensions between the settlers and Native Americans also led to the establishment of fortified trading posts, including Little Fort, north of Chicago in Lake County along the shores of Lake Michigan. The oddly-shaped Vermillion County seen here in the state's east was divided in 1859, creating Ford County, on account of the distance required to travel between different sides of the county (especially the long travel from the county's north to its seat at Danville). Publication History and Census This map is a much-revised Greenleaf issue of David Hugh Burr's 1834 map of the same. The Burr map plates fell into the hands of Jeremiah Greenleaf, who revised them for publication in his own Universal Atlas . The present example is from the 1849 edition of the atlas, the last and final, which was extensively revised over the 1848 edition. We note an example in the David Rumsey Map collection, which has been populated digitally throughout OCLC, making a comprehensive survey of existing physical examples nearly impossible. Nonetheless, the 1849 edition of the atlas is rare, which Rumsey correctly notes is not in Karpinski. We do note an example, however, in Phillips. References: Rumsey 15176.050.…
