Description:
This rare hand colored map is a copper plate engraving, dating to 1858 by the well known 19th century American Mapmaker Colton. It is a representation of the United States according to region from the rare transitional Colton's Cabinet Atlas. This rare map indicates products by region, temperature, and general elevation. The California Gold region is clearly noted. Map is dated 1858. Map in Fine Condition.
Political boundaries as well as major rivers, territories, and counties are carefully labeled. All major cities, bodies of water, rivers, mountains, islands, and sub regions are labeled. Most major national and local political distinctions are outlined and defined in detail. This stunning map is a steel plate lithograph. Each map had a compelling decorative border that is distinctive of Colton's Maps from the Cabinet Atlas. These fine maps were once part of the exceptionally rare 1859 Colton's Cabinet Atlas. The Colton's Cabinet Atlas is a hard to find transitional book bridging the gap between Colton's and Johnson's Atlases. The stunning maps from this atlas are highly desirable due to the elaborate precise detail and careful craftsmanship and elaborate decorative border.
