An important early guide to the Colorado Gold Region, with three Colton maps on two sheets: "Kansas and Nebraska...1859," which is taken from the 1858 General Atlas, minus the upper half of Nebraska - shows eastern Kansas and Nebraska, "Nebraska and Kanzas, Showing Pikes Peak And The Gold Region...1859," which is the lower half of the 1857 General Atlas map of the same title (without the reference to the Gold Region), and "Military Map of Parts of Kansas, Nebraska and Dakota by Lieut. G.K. Warren Top. Engrs. from the Explorations made by him in 1855, 56 & 57... J.H. Colton... New York," which is derived from the lower half of Warren's 1858/1859 "Military Map of Nebraska and Dakota" (see our #2932). The "Nebraska and Kanzas, Showing Pikes Peak..." map appeared as the only map in J.W. Reed's 1859 "Map of and Guide to the Kansas Gold Region (WC343a), also published by J.H. Colton.

(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. |
