Samuel Augustus Mitchell, c.1860, Georgia and Alabama. About 10 1/2 by 13 1/2 inches. Detailed early county map showing counties, rivers, mountains, cities, and rail. Mitchell's maps from this series are some of the more attractive maps from this period. This map is enhanced with a decorative "garland" of flowers which provides a handsome border, making this an especially attractive map. Different editions of the identical map may have a slightly different decorative border to the one pictured. Hand colored lithograph. $115
A. J. Johnson, 1866, Georgia and Alabama. About 17 by 23 3/4 inches. Detailed early county (each differently colored) map from the civil war era showing landforms, early settlements and towns, rail and stage routes. Includes a decorative border. Different editions of the identical map may have a slightly different decorative border to the one pictured. The earlier editions may also include vignettes around the map. Hand colored lithograph. $125
George Cram, c. 1884-1899, Georgia. The map shown is in printed color, each county separately colored. It measures about 9 3/4 by 12 1/4 inches and is a detailed county map depicting landforms, counties, rail road lines, cities and towns. Maps such as these came from the first widely used atlases published for family use in America. Different editions are slightly differently colored. $25
(Crisply colored. The color distortion is caused by the scanner. The edges of the map are cut off due to the size of our scanner.)
Matthew Northrup's Century Atlas, 1897-1911, Georgia. Printed color,
about 15 by 10 1/2 inches. A very fine "modern" looking map with a "piano
key" border. The map depicts landforms, including contours showing
elevations above
sea level. Includes counties, rail lines, roads, cities and towns. Also includes an inset
of Savannah and Tybee Roads in upper right corner and another of the Chickamauga National
Park. $45
(Uniformly in a light green color. The color distortion is caused by the scanner. The brown line at center is caused by joining two scans.)
Rand McNally, c. 1895-19118, Georgia. Printed color, each county separately colored, about 12 1/2 by 9 1/4 inches. A detailed map depicting landforms, counties, rail road lines, cities and towns. No road system is shown as yet. The extensive rail system evidences its importance. Also includes a table (not shown in picture) on the left and right of the map of land area, counties and chief cities. The technology used to develop these maps was so advanced that they at once made all competitors maps obsolete. $25
(Because the size of the scanner is slightly smaller than the map, some of the border does not appear in the photograph)
Dodd Meade and Company, c. 1903, Georgia. Printed color, about 8 1/4 by 10 1/4 inches. A very "modern" looking map with excellent detail. The map depicts landforms and includes counties, rail lines, cities and towns. $15
