"Territory of Arizona", General Land Office

Colorful and fascinating map that provides a detailed look at the territory just six years before statehood. The extent of nine Indian reservations and four military reservations, (Fort Apache, Fort Grant, Fort Huachuca, and Fort Whipple) and numerous National Forest Reserves are clearly shown in different colors. Private land grants are outlined in gray. The Grand Canyon Forest Reserve is shown. Brown hachured mountainous areas and blue waterways further enhance the great visual impact. Details include watershed, mountains, railroads, wagon roads, private claims, unsurveyed townships, etc. Drawn by Daniel O'Hare, and lithographed by the Norris Peters Co., Photo-Litho.

A very nice example with fine color, crisp impression and full margins. Small area of very light toning at one fold, still fine.
