RAILROAD & STEAMSHIP LINES NORTH AMERICA "Correct Map of the Railway & Steamship Lines operated by the Southern Pacific Company" A historically important railway map of the United States of America south of the 45th parallel north from Portland, OR to the state of Maine. The map extends south well into Mexico, shows the entire Gulf of Mexico including Cuba and the large Steamship lines along the Atlantic Coast and within the Gulf of Mexico operated by Southern Pacific. With a large inset county map of Texas and 2 small inset maps of Los Angeles, CA and of San Francisco, CA. In the upper left is the twon of Kalama, Washington. The additional title in the Italian language reflects on the large numbers of Italian immigrants towards the end of the 19th century. (There was also an identical map issued with a German title for the largest non English speaking immigrant group). Lithograph issued by Poole Brothers. Chicago, ca. 1885 This Railroad map shows the immense network of railroads, which had already been spun clear across the United States on behalf of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company. The map is extraordinarily detailed naming all stations along the various operated lines. Hatchings show mountain ranges. This Railway map was part of an advertising brochure with time tables for departures and arrivals as well as all travel information necessary and desirable for especially the (Italian) traveler. It was issued by the Southern Pacific Company in cooperation with the printing outfit Pool Brothers in Chicago. Condition: As part of the above described brochure the large map had to be folded several times vertically and horizontally. As the map was obviously used it was unfolded often. This left some traces of usage. Some of the folds were in danger of braking. Therefore some folds were backed for support very carefully with thin paper. We show scans of the reverse side. In some of the crossings of folds small holes are covered under the backing paper. The margins are narrow all around. Some have small tears. And the left margin, where the mad had been fastened to the brochure, has been widened with thin paper. There are some other traces of age and use which we are zealous to document with scans. The condition in general is surprisingly good considering age, handling and the thin paper it was printed upon. An interesting item with regard to railways in the USA. 39,5 x 79 cm (ca. 15.5 x 31") $ 680.00 Order Nrt. NORTHAMERICA |

"Die neuwen Inseln so hinder Hispanien gegen Orient bey dem land Indie ligen" Early map of the Americas. Woodcut published in "Cosmographia" by Sebastian Munster (1488-1552). This woodcut is from a German edition of the "Cosmographia" printed in Basel, 1553. "The "New World", still oddly shaped before mapping got more precise. We have to realize, that the discovery of America was just about half a century before this map was carved into a woodblock and published. But that's the charm of very early map making! In the Caribbean Sea some of the islands were already named and placed fairly accurately: Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola. Sciana (now Puerto Rico) carries the pennant of Spain. On the North American (US)-mainland we have only Florida named and shown much larger than the State of Florida comprises in modern times. For the first time on a map the Pacific Ocean is named as such: Mare pacificum. While South America is definitely recognizable (even the Magellan Strait is mapped), the West Coast of North America is totally undiscovered. An interesting marginal note is the placing and naming of Japan. Japan is shown as one island quite near to North America and iras name is "Zipangri". Name and placement were taken from a globe produced by Johannes Schoener, which is a precious piece of art at the Germanic National Museum in Nuremberg. Condition: Woodcut has typical but new hand coloring. There is general light age toning. Margins all around show traces of age and use. Lower margin has reinforcements for no obvious reasons, applied probably centuries ago. A slightly visible crease through the Atlantic in lower right corner. Considering the age of the print, it condition is much better than good. 25,7 x 34,2 cm (ca. 10.1 x 13.5") Order Nr. SOUTHAMERICA251769SOLD ******** Reverse side:

Our exemplar has French text on reverse side, indicating, that it was published in 1628. Flanking the Renaissance style ornamental title cartouche are two Native American villages: On the left one in Florida, on the right one in Virginia. A native American royal couple is depicted on the left of map. And in the Atlantic a manned boat with Native Americans is shown. The focus of this map is the area of nowadays Georgia and the Carolinas. But its actually reaches from St. Augustin, FL to Chesapeak Bay. We have to consider, that this map was printed exactly 170 years before the Declaration of Independence. Pioneer discoverers where Spanish, geographers, explorers still fumbled when they cartographed this new land. The map shows many Native American and Spanish place names. Sea monsters, sail ships, a compass rose and another Renaissance cartouche complete this highly decorative, importantly early American map, which is so innocently charming. Centerfold has repairs.
