G.W. & C.B. Colton & Co.
Note
Shows roads suitable for bicycles marked in red. A very late Colton map - the date of 1892 is the copyright date; the map may be of later date, but no other date is indicated. The cover style and address of 312 Broadway is the same as the 1896 map of Staten Island. Printed outline color by township. The mustard cloth covers 16x9 are stamped with "Colton's Driving and Wheeling Map Of The Country Twenty-Five Miles North Of The City Of New York. G.W. & C.B. & Co. New York." in black; then repeated again below is "G.W. & C.B. & Co. New York". The map shows several "Colored Sett." which notation we have never seen before. A note in red above the title says "These maps are particularly intended for the use of Sportsmen, Wheelmen, and Driving Parties, and we respectfully request that any errors or omissions which may be noticed, or other Suggestions for their improvement, shall be at once reported to us, that they may be incorporated into future editions. We especially desire names of creeks and ponds and information respecting new roads, etc." There is a catalogue of Colton road maps on the inside front cover. A blue rubber stamp at top right reads "Supplied by Rand McNally & Co."

Note
The map is from the New Commercial Atlas of the U.S. On the verso of the main map is "Rand McNally Main Highway Map of New York" with Auto Roads shown in green on a base map that is the same as the main map. A note says "For complete auto road information, purchase Rand McNally Official Auto Trails Maps." This notice does not appear on the 1920 New Mexico map, so we assume 1921 was the first year of issue for the auto trails maps. Printed in full color, folded into tan card board covers 17x10.5 printed with "New York. Rand McNally Indexed Pocket Map Tourists' And Shippers' Guide ... Price 35 Cents. Rand McNally & Company, Chicago 536 South Clark St., New York 42 E. Twenty second St." Includes index to New York Principal Cities and the list of New York Railroads. The numbers in the list correspond to the numbers on the map. Prime meridian is Greenwich. Relief shown by hachures.

Kirkham, H.B.
Note
A strip map of the Hudson River from New York City to Lake George, with text on either side describing the cities along the route. Canadian publication is presumed because of the price in shillings. The date is also estimated (the latest date in the text is 1845). Rare - Nestler states only one copy seen by him. A printed note states that the verso contains a list of the principal Hotels in the United States - yet the verso is blank. Probably a woodcut map. Folded into red textured paper covers 9x6.5, this copy lacks the front cover.
