This is a large scale map with good detail on the oil discoveries on the Little Kanawha River in West Virginia and Buck Creek in Ohio. It has an unusual look for a Colton map, indicating it may have been drawn by someone outside the Colton firm. Streeter and Phillips list a first edition in 1865. Full color by township. Folded into patterned brown cloth covers 16x10 with "Colton's Map Of The Oil District Of Ohio And West Virginia J.H. Colton. New York." in gilt.

Note
Compared to the 1860 edition, more railroads are added, plus a small population table in the lower left. The inside front cover ad is for G. Woolworth Colton alone, without the more usual C.B. Colton. This indicates that G.W. took over the firm alone for a short period and then brought in his brother. Full color by township. Map is folded into stamped brown cloth covers 14.5x9 with "Colton's Township Map Of The State Of Ohio J.H. Colton." in gilt. Prime meridians are Greenwich and Washington D.C.

(Covers to) Ohio. By David H. Burr. Published By J.H. Colton & Co. New-York. 1836. 4 Spruce Street. Entered ... 1833 by J.H. Colton & Co ... New York. Engraved & Printed by S. Stiles & Co. (inset) Cincinnati. (with) Portsmouth on the Ohio River. P. Desobry's Lithy. 171 B. Way N. York.

Note
Two maps in one folder, as issued; brown cloth covers 13.5x8.5 stamped with grape-design has "Burr's Map Of The State Of Ohio Published By J.H. Colton & Co. New York" printed in gilt. The full color Burr Ohio map is engraved and printed by S.Stiles & Co. The uncolored Portsmouth map is lithographed by P. Desobry's, N.Y.C. The first edition of the Ohio map was issued in 1833. Inset of Cincinnati. One of Colton's early maps and one of several he published with Burr. The map of Portsmouth appears in no records but seems similar to several maps issued in 1833 to show the opening of the Ohio & Erie Canal. There is a view on the map of "Proposed Front of One Block" which shows buildings to be erected, so this may be a promotional real estate map, as well.
