CONDITION: Single page Map that has a full double page folded map and single page map on the back. As Scanned.Detailed map of Nevada from 1888, showcasing geographical features, towns, and territorial boundaries of the time. The map highlights various mountain ranges, such as the Sierra Nevada, with relief illustrated using hachures to emphasize the state's rugged topography. Notable towns and cities from the era are labeled, including Carson City (then the capital) and Virginia City (a prominent mining town). The map is divided into counties like Nye, Elko, and White Pine, marked with borders, and several transportation routes, possibly railways, connect various settlements. Light colors are used to distinguish between different counties or regions within Nevada. An inset at the bottom left corner likely provides additional information about a specific region, possibly a zoomed-in area or a neighboring state. This map would be of interest to historical geography or cartography enthusiasts, as it provides a glimpse into how Nevada was viewed and organized during the late 19th century, shortly after it became a state in 1864. .NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU PURCHASE: This is a GENUINE ANTIQUE VINTAGE 1880s MAP.
