Art Source International is proud to offer this map from the 1859 edition of Colton's General Atlas. Colton atlases, especially those from the late 1850's, have become increasingly rare. The General Atlas was the first single edition atlas published by the Colton brothers succeeding the expensive two volume Atlas of the World. These maps have the signature * inch Colton border surrounding each map. The Colton firm refused to compromise quality, choosing to compete for sales in the finer quality international market rather than the cheap domestic one. Because of this, all maps were engraved by steel plates rather than by wax engraving which was the most common method used at this time. This map of the Eastern Hemisphere, is very detailed with identification of countries, regions, islands, cities, rivers, lakes and mountain ranges. Each map has beautiful muted red, green, tan, pink, and yellow hand coloring.

This map was produced for the very rare "Octavo Atlas of the World" in 1866. The atlas was published by G.W. and C.B. Colton, sons of the company founder J.H. Colton. This atlas was apparently produced only in 1864, 1865, and 1866. In our research we saw no record of the 1866 being sold in the last 24 years. This map of the Eastern Hemisphere is is beautifully hand-colored, showing regions, currents, and major rivers. A fine addition to any collection.

This detailed image was originally published in the "Illustrated Historical Atlas of the State of Indiana." This is a majestic decorative map of the world, made the year of the US centennial. Perhaps it was a bit of patriotic sentiment that led Baskin & Forster to create these attractive hemispheric maps and their surrounding vignettes, which would eclipse any of the British work of the time in drama and scale. The maps themselves are very detailed and specific, including hundreds of smaller islands in the pacific and the exotic, remote cities of foreign lands (Timbuctoo), as well as detailed coverage for all of the continents. Around the maps we see images taken from the past, and scenes of present US industry. Images of cherubs and Greek goddesses mingle across from Blacksmiths working around their anvils and shippers filling their warehouse. With an intricate decorative border encompassing the image, this is an outstanding American view of the 19th century world.

For over 60 years the Colton family was the premier publisher of maps in the United States. J.H. Colton, the company founder, issued his first “General Atlas” in 1855 and continued publishing this atlas until 1888. These are the first maps we have ever offered from his 1861 “General Atlas”. We believe these 1861 maps are some of his most difficult to find. Every collection should have at least one map by J.H. Colton.

Rand McNally Popular Map of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres
|
Rand McNally & Company, still a major name in map publishing to this day, began as a small print
shop opened in Chicago in 1856 by William H. Rand. The shop originally printed guidebooks and
directories. In 1858, Rand hired Andrew McNally who was later to become a partner. Within the
next few years, the shop got into the railroad business by starting to print railway tickets and
schedules, a key step in the development of the company. The ticket printing led to the publishing
of railway guides, and by 1872 Rand McNally and Company had the capacity to publish maps.
This
map of The Eastern and Western Hemispheres came from Rand McNally's Commercial Atlas, sixty-first Edition dated
1930. A highly successful run of atlases that lasted over a decade. These maps were primarily used
by business, because of their accurate listing of railroads in operation as well as tables of statistical
information. This map includes all cities and towns, lakes, rivers, and bodies of water. All
topographical features are also included as well as political features such as regions and provinces.
