This is the important 1777 Georges Le Rouge French edition of the seminal John Mitchell map of the eastern part of North America. The Mitchell map is considered the single most important map in 18th-century American history. It was used as a primary reference for nearly every treaty and boundary dispute in colonial North America from the French and Indian War (1754 - 1763) through the late 19th century. The map is all the more astounding because this is Mitchell's one and only map - a truly remarkable feat of virtuosity. (more details)

This is the Laurie and Whittle 1794 updated edition of Lewis Evans' foundational 1755 map of the middle part of the British Colonies in North America. Evans' map was the earliest to accurately detail the American frontier at the time of its original publication. It exhibits superb detail in the northern Appalachian Mountains and the Ohio River Valley, providing information about Native American tribes and transport, French and English forts, and other details pertinent to the frontiersman, including sources of salt, roads, and trails. It was hailed by Schwartz and Ehrenberg as 'the most ambitious performance of its kind undertaken in America up to that time.' So widely was the excellence of Evans' map recognized that he was unable to make any money on it at all, as it was promptly pirated by Jefferys, Sayer, Kitchen, Bowles, Crevecoeur, and, as here, Laurie and Whittle. This 1794 edition, at least, updates the map to indicate the outcome of the American Revolution - it names the United States and includes the boundary line between the United States and Canada as determined by the 1783 Treaty of Paris. This is also the first edition of the Evans map to include the new state of Kentucky - although erroneously positioned north of the Ohio River. (more details)

This is a c. 1934 Dolph and Stewart city plan or map of Atlantic City, New Jersey, and its immediate environs highlighting trolley routes in the area. The map depicts the region from the Borough of Longport to Brigantine and from Belvidere Place to the Atlantic Ocean, including Ventnor and Margate.

We have been unable to unearth a concrete history for the Atlantic City Transportation Company. The red lines trace the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines, which operated in New Jersey from 1933 until 1976, and was jointly-owned by the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Atlantic City Railroad.
