1872 Texas Counties and Indian Territory Map
- This reproduction is from The National Atlas of the United States copyrighted in 1872 and published in 1876 by Warner & Beers..
- There are a number of projected but never built fantasy railroads shown as well as major Indian war trails, the military roads connecting the frontier forts and many now-forgotten place names..
- In addition, a very large part of Indian Territory and New Mexico is shown in full color and detail..
- This is one of the few Texas maps that shows Wigefarth County in the lower Panhandle next to Indian Territory..
- This county was in existence for only a short time..
- The map features an intricate border coupled with effective but subtle handwash coloring and is printed on heavy parchment style paper that is excellent for framing..
