Charles A. Gaskell, attr. “Maine.”  From Gaskell’s Atlas of the World

Chicago: Gaskell, 1884. 15 x 11.  Cerograph map with original printed color.  Horizontal fold & scattered spots, mostly away from image.  Else, good condition.

Charles A. Gaskell arrived in Chicago in the early 1880s, commencing a career as an author, publisher and book distributor.

This atlas map (with a map of Maine and one of US Territorial Growth on the reverse)  is a good example of the quality of American mapmaking at the time.  Done by cerography, or wax engraving, the map is filled with precise, clear and copious details.
