The Mitchell company was one of the first to try out the new technique of engraving on steel plates, experimenting with steel almost 20 years before the rest of the publishing industry. He was printing with steel in the early 1830s; the general switch to steel was approximately 1850. During the early years of the company, Mitchell published mainly maps and travel guides. In 1860, Mitchell started producing "Mitchell's New General Atlas", and Mitchell Sr. retired and turned the business over to his son of the same name. The New General Atlas was published until 1893. Today Mitchell maps are sought after for their fine engraving, bright coloring, and attention to detail. They are some of the finest maps produced in the 1860's. This map produced in 1867, has Mitchell's unique floral border, and beautiful hand coloring. This map details Utah and Nevada. Counties, cities, towns, Native American lands, the emigrant road to California, Hastings road,and Beckwith's route, and topographical features are illustrated. This map measures 11 by 10.5 inches.

Seller: Curtis Wright Maps, Berwyn, IL, U.S.A.
Condition: Fine. This beautiful map of Nevada and the Utah Territory was engraved by W.H. Gamble and published by Samuel Augustus Mitchell in 1872. Mitchell was one of the most prominent American mapmakers of the 19th century and initially got involved with cartography as a school teacher who was frustrated with the quality of available maps. He collaborated with skilled engravers and produced high-quality maps and atlases that contained the most up-to-date information available. Mitchell's son (of the same name) would take over the business after his death in 1860 and continue the tremendous output. His attention to detail is evident within the image, which provides an engaging snapshot of the southwestern region in the midst of the Reconstruction Era. Large county configurations are expressed with attractive original color, applied by hand at the time of printing. Finely engraved toponyms label a fascinating variety of settlements, Native American tribes, land districts, and geographic features. Topography is shown in hachure and numerous mountain peaks and ranges are named. A robust transportation network of railroads and wagon roads is depicted, as well as a few notable explorers' routes. Sheet Width (in) 15.1 Sheet Height (in) 12.3 Condition Description The paper is somewhat brittle and has chipped and toned in a few places around the outer edges. A few tiny light spots within the image are hardly noticeable. Very good overall, with original hand color. Seller Inventory # 4939
