This is a c. 1940s Albert Bushnell Hart and Denoyer-Geppert Company wall map of the United States. The map depicts the continental United States from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean and from Canada to Mexico. As a means of illustrating the westward expansion of the United States, color coding is used to differentiate between states. Through this unique coding structure, the piecemeal expansion of the United States across the continent is easily distinguishable. For example, all the yellow states achieved statehood before 1864, which means that both California and Oregon, on the Pacific coast, became states long before the majority of the states in the Trans-Mississippi West. American Indian reservations established by 1916 are depicted in red. (more details)
