Description
First separate map of Texas ever to appear in an atlas
1835 Bradford's Map of Texas , 12.75" x 10.25". With accompanying text of similar size headed "Texas," two pages, front and verso, beginning "It is a northeastern province of the republic of Mexico, and is at present engaged in an arduous struggle for independence." Light folds in upper bank corner. This map (identified as "64.A.") and two page text ("64B" and "64C") have been removed from T.G. Bradford's atlas, Boston and New York, 1835. This is the first separate map of Texas ever to appear in an atlas. All grants are identified, e.g. "Stephen F. Austins Grant," "Burnets Grant," "Dewitts Grant," "Zavalias Grant," etc., as are areas labeled "Comanches Indians" and "Austins Colony." All grants and areas are outlined in color. Both sheets are lightly foxed; chipped edge where removed from atlas. Very good condition.Auction Info
