(Covers to) New Rail Road And Township Map Of Iowa Engraved From Official Draughts of each County. Published By George F. Cram, Dealer In: Maps, Charts, Lithographic Pictures, Steel Engravings, Photographs &c. &c. 134 Lake St. Chicago, Ill. 1868. Entered ... 1868 by George F. Cram ... Illinois. Chas. Shober & Co. Lith.

Note
1st edition, 1st year of operation for Cram's business. Everything about this map is different from Cram's later productions: it is his first year of operation, at 134 Lake Street, and the style of the cover, the map and the cartouche all have an "early" and unsophisticated look. Charles Shober is listed as Lithographer. Cram also produced the Guide Map to Chicago in 1868 (see our copy). Surviving pre fire maps by Cram are rare. Karrow shows 1869 maps for Missouri, Missouri and Kansas together, and Illinois, (all engraved by Pfeiffer, not Shober), but he shows no 1868 maps other than this Iowa and the Chicago maps. So this may be Cram's first state pocket map. It is copyright 1868. There is a view of a steam engine in the cartouche; this does not appear in later Cram maps. A 10 page index lists principal towns and counties, and gives a brief history of the state. Full color. Map is folded into stamped dark green cloth covers 14x9 with "New Township Map Of Iowa" in gilt.

First map of the U.S. engraved in Chicago (Karrow). Printed both sides (eastern half and western half). Inset map of a 1795 map of the western territories, several vignettes, and an inset map of the world. Public land surveys and mineral deposits shown. Scarce. Also published in a larger version without the printing on both sides (see Blanchard catalogue). Blanchard has copied almost exactly (he does say "compiled from government maps" but he should say "copied") the U.S. General Land Office "Map of the Public Land States and Territories" 1867 edition. Some additions are made, i.e. the Black Hills are drawn in and Wyoming is shown as "proposed" but basically it is the same map. Full color. Folded into dark brown stamped cloth covers 15.5x10 with "Cabinet Map of the United States and Territories." in gilt.
