Item description from seller

Overall Size including text and borders : 11 1/4 x 13 1/2 ins. CONDITION: Single page Map that has a full page map on the back. As Scanned.This is an 1888 map of Nebraska, created by George F. Cram. The title "NEBRASKA" is positioned in the lower left corner, with the notation "Geo. F. Cram, Engraver & Publisher, Chicago, Ill.". The map is characterized by its depiction of Nebraska’s counties, towns, and a network of railroads, which were critical to the state’s development at the time. Each county is separated by thin black lines and highlighted with soft pastel colors such as pink, green, and yellow. Major cities like Omaha and Lincoln (the state capital) are prominently marked, while smaller towns and settlements are also labeled in dense clusters, especially in the eastern part of the state. The western region of Nebraska appears more sparsely populated, reflecting its geography and settlement patterns of the late 19th century. The Platte River, one of Nebraska’s most significant waterways, is prominently depicted running across the center of the map from west to east, and smaller rivers and creeks branch off throughout. The map also shows numerous railroads, including both primary and secondary lines, traversing the state, with several converging around Omaha and Lincoln. Neighboring states, such as South Dakota to the north, Iowa and Missouri to the east, and Colorado and Wyoming to the west, are visible at the borders. Latitude and longitude markers are present along the map's frame, indicating coordinates both from Greenwich and Washington. This map provides a detailed view of Nebraska’s administrative boundaries and transportation infrastructure as they existed in the late 19th century, showcasing its strategic importance as a transportation hub. .NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU PURCHASE: This is a GENUINE ANTIQUE VINTAGE 1880s MAP. It is NOT a modern reproduction, ie. a laser scan, photocopy, etc. It is the original from the antique or vintage atlas or book publication. This map was published on the date mentioned, or circa the date mentioned at the top of the page. The map I have for sale, like many antique vintage prints and maps that you see online, originate from an antique vintage book or atlas publication. The publication may not always be known. If you have any questions, emails are welcome. Shipped Unmatted.…
