Note
Lithograph including 3 small views. This is very much in the Andreas Minnesota Atlas style - Warner and Beers in fact collaborated with Andreas and did the coloring on the Minnesota Atlas. This 1876 edition bears little resemblance to the earlier 1871 edition by Warner, Higgins & Beers (see our #3749) which used entirely different maps and had no views. Bound in half leather dark brown cloth covered boards with "Atlas of Illinois 1876 illustrated" stamped in gold on the front and blind stamped on the back.

Note
1st edition with ads for "the Olive Branch." The map of the United States is from Carey's Juvenile Atlas and the Universal School Atlas, with the author's route drawn in. The English Prairie map was done only for this book, I believe, and does not appear elsewhere. The original boards are bound into this later binding.
