Pub Note:
The first Cerographic Atlas of the United States. Issued in three parts (although Woodward states that it cannot be determined how many parts were issued, our copy indicates three parts), this set includes the first part with original yellow paper covers with detailed explanation of the publishing plan to issue the atlas in parts, and an explanation of the Cerographic Process, and the other two parts with printed covers with advertisements on verso of front covers and back covers. The maps are printed on both sides of a sheet and are uncolored. This was issued as a supplement to the New York Observer in 1842, 1843, and 1845. In 1845 it was republished as Morse's North American Atlas, with some changes to the maps and the addition of color. Covers of parts 1 and 3, have a copyright date of 1841. When complete, this edition has 32 maps, four less than the 1845 edition, but including a map of Oregon and a map of Iowa not found in the 1845 edition. The Maine map in this edition is very different from the 1845 edition because it does not show the boundaries of the treaty of 1842; the separate map of Iowa, showing the early formation of eastern counties, is not present in the later edition which has only the map of Iowa and Wisconsin. The Oregon map is derived from Wilkes' Map of the Oregon Territory (almost a copy, actually). This atlas is seldom found in the original three parts. According to Ristow, the Map of Connecticut originally appeared in the June 29, 1839 issue of the New York Observer, as an example of the Cerographic process, along with Morse's announcement that additional maps would be published to form an atlas.
