| This highly detailed 32" x 20" antique map, titled "Railroad Map of Baltimore, Maryland, De" (referring to Maryland and Delaware), was published by G.W. Gray & Son, a prominent Philadelphia-based firm established in the late 1860s. Renowned for producing one of the most successful atlases and for being "one of the last to employ hand coloring on maps," G.W. Gray & Son's meticulous detail is evident here. Likely dating from the 1870s, this map provides a fascinating historical snapshot of the burgeoning railroad networks and key cities like Baltimore across Maryland and Delaware in the post-Civil War era. Its focus on infrastructure makes it a valuable document for understanding economic and transportation development. This piece is an excellent find for collectors of antique maps, railroad history enthusiasts, or as a distinctive decorative item. |
