$105

This USGS Reconnaissance Topo Map is a 1892 edition printed in 1907, an antique sheet on thick stock in excellent condition, very lightly handled and never folded. Spanning the Virginia–North Carolina line, the quad takes in Wytheville, Marion, and Rural Retreat in Virginia along with Sparta and Mouth of Wilson to the south, and includes portions of Jefferson National Forest. Surveyed between 1883 and 1888 under geographer Henry Gannett, it records the area from Nebo to Sparta before the modern highway system, showing the historic travel routes, rail lines, and placenames of that era. The reverse carries printed reference material, and the sheet comes from an uncommonly well-preserved collection.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Wytheville 30-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1883 through 1888.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the USGS 30-minute series have been out of print for many years. They have never been common and original prints are increasingly difficult to find. For areas where the 30-minute map was produced, it is usually the first large-scale survey done by the USGS for that area. These are a valuable historical record, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent series’ and editions.
