Map is copyright 1847 by H. Phelps. 1852 is estimated based on the population figures, compared to the populations given in the 1847 issue, "Pictorial View of the World" by H. Phelps (see our #2922). A wonderful broadside, with heights of mountains, lengths of rivers, female costumes, and much else. |

This is the thin paper copy with smaller ornamental border and no publisher credit. Wheat believes it was folded into some copies of Farnham's "Life, Adventures, and Travels in California;" our copies of that book have the Haven map pasted in one (see our #3963) and this map pasted in the other (see our #5001). This copy shows signs of being folded. It was probably sold with the book and separately. The text is the same as the broadside issue but the title is in different type. Scarce. |

Broadside map in full color, portraits, historical sketch. Copyright is by H. Phelps, 1847. This may be a later reissue by EB&F, which we would date at 1855 based on finding it with two other EB&F broadsides of 1855. This was probably issued to appeal to the desire of recent immigrants from Ireland for information and images of the home country. Relief shown pictorially and by hachures. |

Part of the Ornamental map type series. The map is surrounded by views of farmers and Indians, portrait of John Hancock in decorative cartouche is below the title, the Boston Tea Party is shown, seals of New England states in upper left corner, and the same whaling vignette is repeated five times. This is the "cheap" production for which this publisher is well known during the late 40's. The method of printing is hard to determine - it is either wood block, litho, or cerograph. Full color by county. Relief shown by hachures. Prime meridians are Greenwich and Washington, D.C. |

| Note |
With the wide (1.5 inch) ornamental border and printed on heavy paper. Similar to but an earlier version of the Upper or New California and Oregon portion of the Atwood and Ensigns & Thayer's Map of the United States, 1849. Closer to and derived from their Pictorial Map of the United States of 1847 (see Wheat). Also has a map of North and South America from an unknown source. Under the maps are two blocks of text, one titled "Important Directions to Persons Emigrating to California" and the other titled "Description of California or the new Gold Region." Another version of this map was published on thinner paper and with a 5/16 inch ornamental border (Wheat 85) (see our copy- the title is in different print). The geography of the west is pre-Fremont 1848 unlike the 1849 Map of the United States which incorporates Fremont 1848. This makes us think that the map may be 1848 - there is no date on the map and Wheat estimates the date from sources he does not mention (other than finding the thinner paper copy in a book published in 1849). Full color. Relief shown by hachures. |

| Note |
A flamboyantly colored broadside promoting lands for sale along the projected Chicago & North-Western Railway line to Deadwood, Dakota. The date is estimated from the shown railway development, although the figures "D.78" appear on the left bottom, and that usually would indicate an 1878 date, however, none of the 1878 maps show the line developed as far as it is on the map. But 1878 may be the correct date, with the map showing the lines under construction - this would tie the broadside closer to the Black Hills gold rush of 1877 and explain the prominently shown Black Hills and the town of Deadwood on the map. |

After 1901 and until about 1920, Ohman published many maps, principally of the New York City area (see Haskell listings and our #2087), under the firm name of August R. Ohman. This Map of Cuba was published as a newspaper supplement to show the areas of conflict in the Spanish American War. Printed color. Relief shown by isolines and hachures.
