A. J. Johnson, c.1860-1867, Maine. Full color, about 15 1/2 by 12 1/2 inches. This is a detailed county map with each township differently colored, showing landforms, cities and towns, rail and stage routes. A handsome map published in the civil war era.

Samuel Augustus Mitchell, c.1864 Maine. Handsome in full color, about 11 1/2 by 13 3/4 inches. Decorative floral border, surrounds a handsome map showing rivers, mountains, cities, and railway lines.

George Cram, c.1886-1890, Maine. Colored, about 11 1/2 by 9 1/4 inches. A detailed map depicting landforms, counties, rail road lines, cities and towns.

Rand McNally, c. 1900, Maine. Printed color with each county differently colored, about 12
1/2 by 9 1/4 inches. A detailed map depicting landforms, counties, rail road lines, cities
and towns. Also includes a table (not shown in the picture) on the left and right of the
map of land area, counties and chief cities. No road system is shown
as yet. The rail system evidences its importance. The technology applied in developing
this map was so advanced that it made all similar maps immediately obsolete $25
(Because the size of the scanner is slightly smaller than the map, some of the border does not appear in the photograph)
Matthew Northrup's Century Atlas, 1897-1911, Maine. Printed color, about 10 1/2 by 15 inches. A very fine "modern" looking map with a "piano key" border.
