What are rails?
The type of Rails available for this map are wooden dowels that connect to the top and the bottom of the map to help it hang flat against the wall.
The top rail has a thin rope that can hang from a hook or nail.
The bottom rail has a thin rope used to pull the map down.
These rails serve as a hanging option that eliminates the need for tape or pushpins. |

Most cartographers will tell you that a map is only as good as the source information from which it is gathered. This United States map, first published in March of 1892, shows the US with an overlay describing the relative quality of source maps, or "Mother Maps" available at that time for various sections of the country. The map was painstakingly compiled by mapping pioneer Henry Gannett of the US Geological Survey. The 1892 United States map features:
• A US map showing the 48 states
• Color-coded areas depicting the qualtiy of the "Mother Maps" available for each area
• Major cities and waterways
Coverage Area: United States, northern Mexico, southern Canada
