Antique Map of New York State ? Rand McNally, circa 1888 This antique map of New York State was published by Rand, McNally & Co. around 1888. Unlike the sectional plates, this general map presents the entire state on a single sheet, providing an excellent overview of New York's geography, cities, and extensive transportation system during the late 19th century. The map stretches from Buffalo on Lake Erie to the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain, and from the Canadian border down through the Hudson River Valley to New York City and Long Island. The state's counties are clearly delineated, with towns, rivers, and mountain ranges finely engraved. Railroads, shown in red and blue, form an intricate web connecting the major industrial and commercial centers?Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, and New York City. The Erie Canal corridor, already one of the most important trade routes in America, is also well represented. An inset of New York City provides further detail of the metropolitan area, showing Manhattan, Brooklyn, and surrounding boroughs before the 1898 consolidation of Greater New York. This makes the map not only geographically comprehensive but also historically significant for its urban detail. Rand McNally's maps combined accuracy with practicality, and this statewide edition captures New York at a time of industrial might and expanding infrastructure. It is particularly appealing for collectors of American cartography, New York history, and 19th-century transportation development. Condition report: Very good condition with even toning. Original center fold as issued with slight darkening along the crease. Clean margins with minimal handling wear. Strong impression with excellent detail. Framing tips: This map is ideal for display in a black or walnut frame with a cream mat. A double mat with ivory outer and muted blue inner will emphasize New York's lakes and waterways, while also drawing attention to the New York City inset. Technique: Lithograph with original outline color Maker: Rand, McNally & Co., Chicago, circa 1888.…
