Housed in a tan congressional cloth case, this nearly complete and very colorful lot of 49 (of 50) soil maps comes from the 23rd Annual Report of the Field Operations of the Bureau of Soils, under the direction of Milton Whitney. Each of the maps has a legend identifying the various soil profiles which are overlaid on base maps provided by the Geological Survey. In addition to the soil types, the maps depict roads, railroads, cities and towns, county boundaries and topography via contour lines. The maps highlight the soil survey work being done across the entire country including:
