Note:
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.
