[Rand McNally and Company, Smith, J.L.]
Note
An example of J.L. Smith issuing Rand McNally maps. On the map is a red rubber stamp with Smith's name and logo. The map is classic Rand McNally for the period, showing railroads only in the eastern half of the U.S. and railroads and roads in the less settled western half. This is a later, enlarged (into Mexico) issue of the 1883 Rand/Dripps U.S. (our #3259). Eight small insets are titled: Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Chicago, Buffalo & Niagara Falls, and Washington. Outline color by state, map folded into black cloth covers 16x11 with label reading "Map Of The United States And Territories J.L. Smith." Prime meridian is Washington D.C.

Very large hand colored map with detailed engraving. This does not look like the "normal" Rand McNally map - it is probably a separately made map that they acquired the rights to. This copy was sold in England by Edward Stanford and has his label on the case. Map is in four sheets, each dissected into 21 sections. With outline color by state, topography shown in brown, and railways and shipping routes in red. Sheets have marbled end papers with labels reading "North East", "North West", "South East" and "South West"; all fold into a brown cloth slip case 22.5x14.5 with a label reading "Mexico. London: Edward Stanford, Wholesale & Retail Mapseller, &c. 55, Charing Cross. Agent by Appointment ..." Relief shown by shading. Prime meridians: Washington and Greenwich.

[Rand McNally and Company, Watson, Gaylord]
Note
Issued with the Legislative Manual. Insets of New York City, Buffalo, and Long Island. This map appears in parts in the 1882 Rand McNally Indexed Atlas of the World. It is mysterious why Gaylord Watson's name appears on this map. He had other collaborations with Rand McNally (see his New Indexed Family Atlas of the World, 1884) which may relate to this. Map is folded into red textured cloth covers 17x11 stamped with "Map Of The State Of New-York Accompanying The Legislative Manual 1887. Weed, Parsons & Co." in gilt. Printed outline color by county and township.

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.
