Pub Note:
Atlas of 110 connected views which, when assembled, would make a panorama 9 x 24 feet, "the largest panoramic map published" (Hebert). Reps calls this work "a tour de force. The detail is minute ... such apparent accuracy would have been an accomplishment beyond any reasonable expectation." A remarkable and unique work. Bound in dark green leather covered boards with a decorative framed title embossed in gold reading "Pictorial Saint Louis."
