Unusual index map that shows the rough shape and projection for each of the original 50 maps of the atlas. Stieler was one of the first to use this technique for a visual index instead of listing the maps in text only. Zero or first edition of Stieler Atlas published 1817-1833 in three versions. 1817-23 (version 0.a), 1823-31 (version 0.b), 1831-33 (version 0.c). Publication went through ten editions from 1816 to 1944. This version published in 2 parts then augmented with two further supplementary installments, through 1833. Most maps have the year of first edition. This edition compromises 90 sheets, dated 1816-1835, including composite index map, and extraordinarily detailed maps and supplements. Maps are copper-plate engravings, hand colored in outline, mounted on cloth backing. Bound in marble papered, half leather covers with no title on cover. Inset map on title page: Gotha und Umgebung 1823 ; gest. v. Edler. Gez. v. Bar.

The map was published at the request of the Government of Guatemala. In 1858, Maximilian Sonnenstern, received an exclusive privilege to manufacture paper in the Republic of Guatemala. He also received a contract to produce the first modern map of Guatemala, Sonnenstern was assisted by Agustin Van de Gehuchte, a Beglian Civil Engineer residing in Guatemala City, who was active in the surveying and planning of a number of road, bridge and port building projects for the Guatemalan Government.The map includes an inscription from Colonel Charles Bulkley to E. Hagen, "Rememberance from one scoundrel to the other . . . Guata. Nov 13 / [18]87." Bulkley's last work would seem to have been surveying work done for the Guatemalan Government in connection with the Intercontinental Railway, which included soundings taken in Lake Atiltlan.

Color pictorial map of Alaska, published the year Alaska officially became the 49th state of the United States of America. Showing rivers, straits, sounds, towns, mountain ranges (drawn in aerial perspective), glaciers (shaded white), and existing and proposed highways. The map is richly illustrated with naturalistic depictions of wildlife, agricultural products, historical landmarks, oil fields and fisheries. Along the left and right sides, six circular illustrations highlight important events in Alaskan history beginning with Vitus Bering's 1741 explorations and ending with Alaska statehood in 1959. A compass rose over the Gulf of Alaska incorporates the American and Alaskan flags. Includes a section of the Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Yukon and the Northwest Territories to the east, which are depicted in less detail and dominated by a large illustration of a Native American totem pole. The map border is rendered in a geometric beadwork design, inspired by artwork of indigenous Northwest Coast tribes.

For some reason Haskell and Stokes date this map 1864 although it was copyrighted by Viele in 1865. Removed from the Report of the Council of Hygiene (see our copy). The map shows all the original water courses of Manhattan Island, with the street grid superimposed on top. Also, three different kinds of land are shown: Marsh, Made Land, and Meadow. Sewer lines are indicated. A very beautiful full color map occasioned by a not so beautiful subject. In 1874 Viele reissued the map in larger format as the Topographical Atlas of the City of New York (see our copy). This map was also published as a separate pocket map, in covers.
