Good. Laid on linen, poster style. Some large tears expertly repaired. Minor infill here and there. Size 27.5 x 33 Inches. This 1931 pictorial map of Fort Sill, Oklahoma, is Frank Dorn's earliest known map. Embracing Fort Sill and the surrounding area, Dorn's synthesis of comic pictorial cartography, history, and vignettes of day-to-day life offer a broad picture of the military experience on base. Dorn is most famous for his Map and History of Peiping , which achieved wide acclaim and distribution. His other maps, all depicting military bases where he was stationed, including this his first map, were issued in much lower quantities and are all extremely rare. Dorn as an Artist As is evident here, by 1931, although there are no known earlier maps, Dorn has already developed a sophisticated and distinctive personal style. The map is composed of countless vignettes that poke fun at military life, while detailing the region's points of interest, local lore, vernacular nomenclature, and history. About 3/4 of the border presents a comic clockwise history of the region, from early American Indian Settlement to the founding of the Field Artillery School. Fort Sill Fort Sill is a U.S. Army based near Lawton, Oklahoma. The enormous base covers some 94,000 acres. It was founded in 1869 by Major General Sheridan during the Indian Wars. Initially called Camp Wichita, Sheridan renamed it after his friend and fellow West Point alum Brigadier General Joshua W. Sill (1831 - 1932). Fort Sill played a significant role in the subsequent Indian Wars. Later, during World War I, early aviators used the base to develop combat aviation tools and techniques. Sill is thus considered the birthplace of American military aviation. In 1917, after the United States entered World War I, the Field Artillery School, where Dorn was a professor, opened and remains active at Fort Sill to this day. Publication History and Census This map was drawn and published by Frank Dorn while at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, in 1931. The printer remains unknown. It is rare. We are aware of two that have sold in recent decades. Institutionally, we note one example in the OCLC, at the University of Utah. A second example is part of the David Rumsey Collection.
