Note:
This is a very late edition of this map. The latest American Atlas edition we have seen is 1839. In the upper right corner, the map has been extended beyond the neat line to show the developing areas of southern Wisconsin, around Mineral Point. Many new counties have been added in Missouri and Illinois. The copyright date has been changed to 1836. The southwestern shore of Lake Michigan has been completely redrawn. Proposed railroads are prominently displayed crisscrossing Illinois - the first such depictions on any editions of this map. Full color by county, folded into black leather covers 15x8.5 with "Illinois & Missouri." stamped in gold. Prime meridian is Greenwich.
