This wall map was issued 13 years after statehood and is drawn on an impressive scale of 8 miles per inch. It is delineated by both county and township. Public surveying is nearly complete with only small pockets in the southwest and northwest left unsurveyed. The detailed map depicts the evolving railroad network, locates and names a number of Indian Reservations, and a legend at left further identifies land offices, military reservations and forest reserves. The verso contains a map of The World on Mercator's Projection flanked by presidential portraits. Original rollers are present and attached.
