Beschreibung

Long sheet of moderately heavy stock, 6.75 x 26.75", folded to make eight vertical panels (the outermost fold is splitting). _____ Those panels which serve as the exterior covers are somewhat soiled. _____ Mr Smith is the general passenger agent, so he gets credit for this wonderful little item. _____ One side has four panels occupied by the title and ads, the other four are taken up by a "Condensed Time Table / Leavenworth to Chicago." _____ The reverse side is given over entirely to a route map (credited to Fisk & Russell Engr.) of the rail lines from the Atlantic to west of the Denver meridian, with Chicago falling mid-way. _____ The Central Branch of the Union Pacific stops at Waterville, Kansas, which should date this to around 1872. _____ The Kansas Pacific is complete to Georgetown, Co. and the AT&SF runs southwest from Canon City, Co. _____ The Union Pacific passes westward off the map from Carbon, Wy. _____ Towns and cities along the rail lines are identified as are a few remote forts. _____ Not in WorldCat (05/24).
