Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Pocket Travel Map Collection, consists of 22 maps dating from 1835 to 1916. The travel maps resemble a small book with hard covers containing a folded map so the traveler could easily fit the map inside their pocket. Often times included with the maps were indexes and historical information about the area. The maps have been stored in their original folded state therefore are extremely fragile. The researchers should be extremely careful when handling the maps.
