l'Academie Rle. des Sciences. I. COVENS ET C. MORTIER.
AMSTERDAM. 1730. OUTLINE HAND COLOR. COPPER ENGRAVING. op.cit.
Martin & Martin, pl.19, p.98-99. A later but improved version of
the same map first published in 1718. The Martins', father and
son, stated that "It was only through the maps of Delisle,...,
that Texas began to take shape recognizable to the modern eye."
The first issue of 1718 they felt to be "his most important
achievement for North American cartography". Delisle died in
1726 and Covens and Mortier and other map publishers began to
issue copies or adaptations. The Martins' went on to say that
"because of its accurate information on the Mississippi and its
tributaries, this map served throughout the eighteenth century
as the prototype for most subsequent renderings of that great
river. Interesting and accurate depiction of the course of the
Mississippi but rather fanciful in other areas. Accurately shows
the river systems and trails of Texas. Names and dates the
routes of the major French explorers there. Short notes give the
history of these explorations. But Florida is practically
divided by the mythical Bay of the Holy Spirit (the
Everglades?). Delisle was also the first to insert nationalistic
claims into his maps; Florida is claimed for France rather than
Spain. This created a flurry of competing map claims for the
next sixty or so years. Of particular importance is the inset
map of the mouth of the Mississippi, a confusing area that had
caused LaSalle to miss it and land in Texas. This specimen is a
nice one only slightly waterstained along the top margin and a
few pen holes. Sharp, early impression with handsome original
outline color. 17.25"H. x 23.75"W. VERY GOOD. $4,000.00.

Retained draft copy of a memorial sent to Congress by forty
owners, masters and pilots of steamboats requesting that an Act
passed May 24, 1825 be amended. "Planters sawyers" or snags found
in the currents of the Ohio and Mississippi were to be trimmed or
cut off near the bottom at the lowest stage of water. Evidently
the nature of the problem was not properly investigated prior to
passage of the measure and appropriation of the funds, for many of
these growths were on dry sandbars at lowest water and the
contractors were not cutting these as their contract did not
require it. Interesting picture of the great rivers in Federal

vertical strip maps from St. Louis to the Gulf each with a
vignette printed in blue. The Magnus issue is more attractive
than either the James T. Lloyd or that of his competitor H.H.
Lloyd. Stephenson states it was engraved by F.W. Boell although
this is not stated on the surface. He also gives a scale which
is also not present. On fragile paper it is seldom seen. Shows
two tables of distances and the four vignettes which are St.
Louis, Memphis, Vicksburg and New Orleans. Extraordinary detail
of roads, railroads, towns, villages, forts, churches, saw
mills, occasional landowner or plantation names, steamboat
provisioning and wooding stops, court houses, and individual
stores (e.g. in our neck of the woods, Lauderdale County,
Tennessee, "Hales Store" is depicted as a single building, parts
of which still existed eighty years later). This fact leads to
speculation that an artist came down, or up, the river before
The War sketching settlements as small as Hales Store and as
large as New Orleans. This map is definitive of the way the
lower Mississippi River looked physically, militarily, and
politically during the Civil War. Original hand coloring.
