This map is from Asher & Adams" "New Statistical and Topographical Atlas of the World." This atlas is unique in its vivid hand coloring and easy to read town names. Asher & Adams had this to say in their forward: "The erroneous method of crowding and burdening maps with a vast amount of names, blurring the page and obscuring the places they should bring to view" has been discarded in this work." This map of Illinois pays particular attention to railroads, railroad stations, rivers, and numerous cities and towns. This map measures 22.25 inches by 16 inches. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 38615
