Flemming, Carl 1845 Texas This scarce German map, a reduced version of Arrowsmith`s 1841 Republic of Texas map, shows the extent of Texas` claims to the region of the upper Rio Grande, including Santa Fe, Taos and Albuquerque. The detailed map identifies many roads, rivers, towns, and forts. Thirty land districts are outlined and named in a table in the top right corner. The northern panhandle is divided into 12 sections, with the German notation (copied from Arrowsmith) that the land was well wooded and watered. There is an inset with a small map of Galveston Bay in the lower left. The outline color on this example delineates both the counties and republic boundaries. The county lines are somewhat misrepresented, with San Patricio encompassing the southern tip of the state which is consistent with 1845, but without the counties of Lamar and Bowie in northeastern Texas, which were already organized by 1841. Published in Glogau. 12.5"" W x 15.5"" H A sturdy sheet with minor color offsetting and light damp stains in both top corners and the bottom right corner of the map.

Numerous towns are identified, primarily along the coasts, with several notations throughout the map. On the southern map, detail is again mostly confined along the coastlines, but there are some inland features including rivers, lakes, marshes and the locations of missions. The Andes are noted as a vast volcanic cordillera. A table of longitudes and latitudes of key cities and the publisher`s imprint are presented on a large chest, which is also supporting a globe, compass and armillary sphere."" 13.5"" W x 9.1"" H Nice impressions on watermarked paper with one small, professionally repaired hole in the Atlantic Ocean on the southern map and light printer`s ink residue.

1894 [Vellum Manuscript Indenture] ""This indenture serves as testament to the sale of land owned by the Walsall Wood Colliery to several members of the Macpherson family of Wyrley Grove, Lachlan Andrew Macpherson, his wife Elizabeth Macpherson, and George Macpherson. The land was sold for 1175 pounds with the contingency that the Walsall Wood Colliery retained the right to mine beneath the land. The Walsall Wood Colliery would not be permitted to enter the surface of the land, but could extend mine shafts from adjacent lands, without liability for any damage caused either to the surface of the land or any buildings upon the land. A large plat is included on the indenture with a scale of 4 chains per inch, depicting the boundary lines of the land in the sale. A table at bottom describes each of the areas on the plat and indicates in which parish the areas reside. The top of the indenture is cut in a jagged (""""toothed"""") line, as was the common practice with indentures. The legal contract was duplicated on a single sheet, and then the copies were separated by a jagged edge, so that the two pieces could be fit together again to verify authenticity. The indenture include tax stamps, the red embossed stamp of the Walsall Wood Colliery Company, and five red wax seals."" 27.1"" W x 21.7"" H Minor toning and soiling.
