Descripción:
San Francisco: Lithographed by W. W. Elliott Lithograph. No date (c.1890). 24x38 inches. Lithographed in black on white. Top border edge just a bit rough, but a fine crisp copy. A magnificent bird's-eye view showing all of the city of Stockton, California and the surrounding country. All of the streets and roads are labeled. Surrounding the view are 26 insets showing public and commercial buildings. Includes promotional text for the city as well as an index of significant buildings and places, keyed by number to the view. At the bottom border, "Compliments of E.A. Crennan & Co., Real Estate Auctioneers, Stockton, California." W.W. Elliott is best known for his views in a number of the county histories produced in the 1870's and 1880's. Unlike many lithographers of similar views of that period, Elliott had a knack for artistic shading which gave his images a wonderful quality of depth and clarity. This lithograph is quite scarce and is rarely offered It is not mentioned in…

Buenos Aires, Dirección de Ferro Carriles Nacionales, 1892. Color topographical printed map in four parts of eighteen sections each, backed with linen. Scale: 1: 1,000,000. The map encompasses approximately 41° South latitude to approx. 20° S. latitude, and approx. 53° West longitude to a little beyond 73° W. latitude. This includes Chile along its entire western border, in some cases to the Pacific, and parts of Bolivia, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Railroad lines are shown as far south as Bahía Nueva in Chubut on the east coast and a bit inland from Valdivia (Chile) in the west; in the north Asunción is the farthest inland reach, and both completed and projected sections of the Transandine (Valparaiso to Buenos Aires) line are shown (the last tunnel was completed in 1909). Development of railways in the Argentine dates from 1857 and was mostly supported by private companies largely controlled in England, about 15% being owned and operated by the government. Produced following an investment crisis in 1890, this map may have been intended to encourage support of an already well-developed transportation system carrying the pastoral and agricultural products of Argentina's steadily developing export trade, which contributed greatly to maintaining the country's economic stability. Besides showing railways, the large scale on which this map was produced allows a comprehensive view of the country and its physical peculiarities. Dry rivers, mountain peaks, saline lakes, central plateaus, the Gran Chaco, countless rivers-- all are shown with the detail and elevations one expects from railroad survey expeditions. Each part consists of a single horizontal fold and nine vertical folds and attaches to its covers at the lower left section. Each section measures 8.25 x 12.25 inches. Each unfolded part of 18 sections measures 24.5 inches high by 74.5 inches wide; the entire map unfolds to eight feet two inches in height and six feet two inches wide. The four parts are bound in embossed green cloth covers printed in gold. Oval stamp of the DFCN near the cartouche. Despite a little old worming and a few minor stains, the map is handsome and brilliant. Stock#NS0156.

Paris: chez Chereanau, [1719].. Oblong small 4to. Full vellum with ties. Wear at edges, chip from fore-edge of lower front cover,blank end leaves are heavily annotated and written-upon in 18th & 19th century hands. Old stains to margins and a few maps, old paper-tape repairs to the verso of the Asia map, but generally very good. Engraved allegorical title page, 3 plates (two of globes), and 24 maps opposite explanatory text in French. 23 maps have contemporary hand-colouring in outline; a couple have attractively coloured cartouches. The Globe Terrestre map, of two hemispheres, is holed, slightly affecting the title. The map of North America shows California as an island. This is the second or third edition of this atlas, originally by Antoine Menard, first published by Chiquet in [1711 & 1713], with most of the maps dated 1709-1711. In this 1719 edition Chiquet has removed Menard's name entirely; on many of the maps (such as L'Amerique Septentrionale) he has changed it to his own name and altered…
