* This is a lithograph map on bank note paper with full original color. Neat line to neat line it measures about 46.1 x 49.2 cm. Overall sheet size is about 50 x 52.7 cm. The only flaws I see with this map is some pencil writing along the outer edge (white portion) and obvious red ink markings. They look to be route lines drawn by the person who had this map about 140 years ago. If you look at the last photo which is of the backside, you can see pretty much see where the red ink markings are. This map was sold to me at an estate sale of an old 19th century railroad builder, several years ago.
* A First edition, first issue of Roessler’s small-format Texas map (Taliaferro 352A); this issue was reworked by Roessler in 1877 for the 1878 Burke’s Texas Almanac (Taliaferro 352B). This issue map is distinguished by the inset map ofGalveston, which was replaced with an illustration of the State House in Burke’s Texas Almanac. Roessler’s maps are the only printed maps that preserve the results of the Shumard survey, the state’s first geological and agricultural survey. Raines, p. 107. Winkler 3895. Roessler’s incorporation of detailed documentation from the Shumard Survey into his maps make them the most reliable nineteenth-century record of agricultural and mineral wealth of the state during the nineteenth century.Map also shows the hotly disputedGreer Countyas part of Texas..
* Map shows counties (in color), towns, roads, railroads, military posts, locations of mineral deposits (with illustrated key to types of minerals), physical features, Native American reservations in New Mexico and Indian Territory, etc.SHIPPING CHARGES: USPSPriority Mail which Includes Insurance & Signature Confirmation.
