The topo sheet shows the surface physical (hills, rivers, lakes, etc.) and cultural features (buildings, ranches, farms, roads, railroads, towns, localities, ferries, etc.) as they existed almost 100 years ago. Old folio topographic and geologic maps form an important historical record of the physical and cultural features of the country as they existed and were named (and, in the case of geology, interpreted) over 100 years ago. These maps with accompanying explanatory text are among the earliest of the area surveyed by the USGS and often show a simpler, less well developed and sometimes surprising landscape than is familiar today. These old folios are long out of print and can make wonderful research or conversation pieces. Given the relative rarity of separately published early USGS topographic and geologic maps in the marketplace, the folio series generally offers the best source of maps available to the public for those familiar with the surveyed areas. In 1894, the USGS implemented a plan to prepare a geologic map of the US in the form of over 3,000 quadrangle atlas sheets issued individually in folio size. The essential parts of each folio were a description of the region surveyed, a topographic map, and an areal geologic map. Additional geologic map sheets and illustrations would be included as determined by the important economic and/or scenic characteristics found in the area. Of the over 3,000 folios planned, only 227 were ever issued before the series was discontinued in 1945. The majority of folios, such as the one offered for sale here, were issued in a 18 x 21 library edition containing never-folded, single-sided maps printed on heavy paper with a highly calendared (glossy) surface. This surface was specifically chosen to give the best effects to the patterns and colors. These characteristics make the library edition the preferred choice for collectors and print sellers. Never-folded (and later folded) field editions were also issued but as a portfolio without calendared map surfaces.
