Note:
This is a large scale map with good detail on the oil discoveries on the Little Kanawha River in West Virginia and Buck Creek in Ohio. It has an unusual look for a Colton map, indicating it may have been drawn by someone outside the Colton firm. Streeter and Phillips list a first edition in 1865. Full color by township. Folded into patterned brown cloth covers 16x10 with "Colton's Map Of The Oil District Of Ohio And West Virginia J.H. Colton. New York." in gilt.
