Full Title	(Covers to) Rand, McNally & Co.'s new geological map of Colorado. Copyright, 1879, by Rand, McNally & Co.
List No	4788A
Note	This is a very unusual map for Rand McNally to issue - geological maps were not common in their catalog and this may be the only one they published. It was probably the interest in mining that motivated publication and the inclusion of "Mineralogical References" in the map key. The main source for the geological formations was Hayden's General Geological Map of Colorado that appeared in his 1877 Atlas of Colorado. But Rand McNally's map has much more detail on towns and railroads than Hayden and is a much superior map in that respect. Ellis 82 is the 1880 edition, which was also issued without geological coloring as "Rand McNally & Co.'s New Sectional Map of Colorado." This map is in printed full color, folded into dark blue cloth covers 16.5x10 titled "Rand, McNally & Co's geological and mineralogical maps Of Colorado" in gold.

Note	First edition, second state. Shows mineral deposits by color. Lineal descendent of the 1869 larger map of California and Nevada by Holt, Gibbes, and others. Also shows 10, 20 and 30 mile railroad grants. This is not the first state of the first edition - that has 11 land districts instead of the 14 found on this copy (see our #5154). The "unexplored" area in the Northeastern corner of California has been removed with much topographical detail changed from the first state. Eureka County is added in Nevada. The change of the Land Districts from eleven to fourteen includes a radical change in boundaries, some names changed, and numbering changed, indicating a major restructuring of the General Land Office administration in 1873. Map is folded into red cloth covers 16x10 with "Holt's Map Of California And Nevada." in gilt.

List No	5208.001
Note	First edition, with Karrow showing later editions in 1849, 1850 and 1851. Eberstadt calls this "perhaps the earliest large scale separately printed sectional map of the Territory." Copper and Lead mines are shown in the area around Mineral Point and counties are colored blue in outline. This is probably Lapham's first published state map - the map he used in his 1844 "Geographical and Topographical Description of Wisconsin" is by Morse and Breese (see our #3077). His earliest city map is the 1845 "Map of Milwaukee" engraved by Sherman and Smith (although Karrow attributes to Lapham the 1836 "City of Milwaukee" by William Burt). Backed on thin linen and folded into dark brown leather covers 14x9, with "Wisconsin." stamped in gilt on the front cover.
