Good detail of existing railroads includes the Dubuque and Pacific, Cedar Rapids and Missouri River, Mississippi and Missouri, and the Burlington and Missouri River. Each county is named and Land Office seats located. Signed in the plate by Jos. S. Wilson, Commissioner for the General Land Office. Handsome example.
