Note
Not an Annual Report! Unique edition-all engraved. A set of most of the Coast Survey maps published to July 1854, and all are engraved instead of lithographed as were the maps in the annual reports. Each map has the unique inscription at the top reading "Presented under authority of an act of Congress of the United States of June 3d 1844 by direction of the Treasury Department A.D. Bache Superintendent Coast Survey." U.S. Atlases lists another edition (L3666) of 1856. Bound with half leather and marble paper covered boards with title in gilt on spine. David Rumsey Collection copy: the chart "Sea Coast of Delaware, Maryland and part of Virginia" is lithographed rather than engraved. Laid in is a broadside published by the Survey "Coast Survey charts published, sketches and preliminary charts, the following sketches will be gratuitously distributed:, Agents for sale of maps:, Coast Survey Office, Washington, March 15, 1853" (our pub. list no. 5754).

Note
1st edition was 1850; this issue is updated to show Washington Territory, but not Kansas and Nebraska. Wheat mentions the curious and inaccurate indentations on the California coastline. Wheat also states that the 1850 edition shows no towns in the Sierra Nevada - in this issue there are several towns shown. Full color by state. Includes table of distances. Relief shown by hachures. Prime meridian is Washington, D.C.

Note
Outline color map. The map is dated 1854, but differs from our other 1854 map in Lippincott's Gazetteer in that it shows the new territories of Kansas and Nebraska. This is the latest issue of the map that we have seen. The four inset maps also in outline color are of the Niagara River and Falls; California, Oregon, New Mexico, Utah &c.; the island of Cuba; and the city and harbor of Havana. The guide includes routes, fares, healthful resorts, and statistics. Bound with brown cloth covered boards. Title in gilt with vignettes on cover.
Author
Burr, David H.
Note
33rd Cong.,1st Sess., Senate Ex Doc. No.77. From a government publication on tax collection, published in July of 1854 (see our copy). Shows Kansas and Nebraska (possibly the first government map to do so) and the Gadsden purchase. Slightly larger scale than Burr's 1839 Map of the U.S., and, of course, entirely different western topography. However, there is a graphic similarity (lettering, overall look) between this and the earlier map. Burr is listed on the map as "Draftsman U.S. Senate." Shows Ports. States and districts boundaries indicated in red and yellow outline. Depth of water shown by soundings. Prime meridians are Greenwich and Washington, D.C.

[Blanchard, Rufus, Ranney, Adolphus.]
Note
A late New York imprint of Blanchard's. Blanchard went to Chicago in 1854, so this map (entered in New York by Blanchard in 1854) must have been one of his last before the move. It is a wonderful example of a hand colored wax engraved map - up to date in showing Kansas and Nebraska Territories, and decorative with an eagle cartouche, vignettes of ships and steam engines, and a vine border. Full color. Folded into stamped olive green leather covers 14.5x9 with "Ranney's New Map Of The United States" stamped in bronze. Prime meridians are Washington D.C. and Greenwich.

[Colton, J. H., Smith, J. Calvin]
Note
This is the third year of Colton's publication of this map. Other than adding his name to the title, the map remains the same, except for many changes in the topographical and political information: Washington, Oregon, Utah, New Mexico and California (but not Kansas yet) are shown on the inset map of North America. On the main map Iowa's western counties are filled out, Texas adds many counties in the west, and railroad growth is explosive throughout, all compared to the 1850 edition. With black top and bottom rollers. Full color by county with states outlined.
