Mexico, California and Texas This is the first state of this fine steel-engraved map. The outline for the original state borders of Texas is shown extending into Colorado with much of present-day New Mexico included, although on this particular example the colorist traced the border along the Arkansas and Mississippi rivers, creating a peculiar configuration of the Lone Star state. Two vignettes depict Mexican peasants and the ancient Mayan ruins at Uxmal. The very decorative border incorporates native plants of the region. The map was drawn and engraved by John Rapkin, the vignettes by H. Warren and engraved by J. Rogers. Original outline color with minor toning along the centerfold. 10"" W x 13"" H Tallis, John 1850
A Map of the Bay of Campechy [with related text] This is a scarce map of the Bay of Campeche and the Yucatan Peninsula. It covers the region first explored in 1517 by Fernando de Cordoba and Antonio de Alaminos and visited by Dampier twice prior to his circumnavigations. The city of Campeche, on the west coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, derives its name from the Mayan city of Kan pech. The Sacrificious I. (Island of Sacrifices), located just offshore from Veracruz, notes the location of a prominent Aztec temple discovered by the Spanish in 1518. There are no place names along the coastline now known as Riviera Maya, but Cozumel Island is named and the city of Valladolid is located. Included is 132 pp. of related text (4.8 x 7.5""). William Dampier (1652-1715) was a soldier, buccaneer, pirate, British navy captain and hydrographer. He was also among the most influential of travel writers. Dampier completed his first circumnavigation between 1679 and 1691, during which he was among the first group of Englishmen to land in New Holland (Australia). A strong impression with a few faint spots in the image and a narrow left side margin as issued. Disbound text is lightly toned with scattered foxing mostly in the blank margins. 5.8"" W x 11"" H Moll, Herman 1705
