ORIGINAL 'ATLAS OF JEWELL COUNTY, KANSAS COMPILED FROM ACTUAL SURVEYS AND COUNTY ROADS, TO WHICH IS ADDED MAPS OF THE STATE, UNITED STATES AND WORLD' CHICAGO, GILLEN & DAVY 1884

This is just a great original piece. I like these atlases because they are a combination of great maps and a wealth of information about the history of the area.  This atlas is particularly scarce and I have not been able to find any other examples out there.  A couple in institutional holdings but that is about it.  I wish this map was complete but it is missing one of the 4 double page maps.  It has the Map of Kansas (with railroads), the United States, and the World map.  The map that is missing is the 2 page map of the County of Jewell.  It has all the single page maps of all the towns and village plats of the county.  It also includes the original directory of names, occupations, and place of residence/business in each town.  A wealth of information that is tough to find anywhere else.  Really just a beautiful example of early Kansas history.  The cover corners show some bumping and the hinges are cracked but still holding together. Do your own research on this atlas.  See if you can find another example, particularly one in this condition.  FREE SHIPPING ANYWHWERE IN THE UNITED STATES!
