List No 0164.001
Note This map may be related to the Monk/Gilpin Colorado of 1865 (see Ellis p. 76, and see our #3509) - Colton republished the Monk/Gilpin in 1866 and that was very likely the base for this map. This is one of the most attractive of the early Colorado maps - Ellis calls it "a very good map and on a large scale." The hachuring used to indicate mountains and drainage is unusual and visually distinctive. Full color by county, folded into dark brown cloth covers 15.5x9.5 with "Topographical Map Of Colorado G.W. & C.B. Colton & Co" in gilt. Prime meridians are Greenwich and Washington D.C.

Note Outline color by state, folded into dark gray modern cloth covers 15x10 with "Colton's Map Of The United States And The Canadas" in gilt. Issued separately in pocket map form, linen backed (High Ridge #108 in Cat 18), and in the Traveler's and Tourist's Guide Book (and Route Book) Through the United States of America and the Canadas. First edition was 1850 (Howes C623) by Colton, Howes says the guide is descended from J. Calvin Smith's Guide of 1846, the map is slightly larger scale than the Smith and larger in size, and it is clearly related. Another example of the Colton/Smith relationship - this Guide, the Western Guide, and the Large Map of the U.S. and the Canadas. This map is derived from the large wall map of the United States of America (see our #3960). The division between the two plates used to make this portion of the wall map is visible in Tenn. and N.
