Jasper Republican, Volume 2, Number 15, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 December 1875 — New Map of the Nerth-Western States. [ARTICLE]
New Map of the Nerth-Western States.
We have received from the publishers of the Cincinns and Weekly Times, a copy of their new Map, just issued, of the Northwestern States. Having givdn it.a careful examination, we can truthfully say that it is superior in every respect to anything of the kind ever produced. The engraving, in copper, hasjust been completed, at an expense of many thousand dollars, and the present is the first edition ever published from the new plates. The railroad lines are complete to the present date, with every town and station distinctly marked and named. The lettering of the names of counties and cities, towns and villages, is very clear and distinct. The coloring is haadsome, and not gver-done tn the obscuring of the print. It is issued in two forms, in order to accommodate the residents of the far Western State?. No. 1 embraces the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota. lowa. No. 2 embraces Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Wisconsin, Minnesota, loiva, Nebraska, Dakota. Each Map is complete in itself; is colored;
varnished, and mounted on roller; and is well worth $2 in any retail dealer’s hands. But the publishers of the Cincinnati TVmes make a present of it to all who send them the full subscription price for their Weekly for one year namely, $2.00. Every subscriber also receives a copy of the annual Illustrated Hand-Book, a handsome and useful volume ofTOO octavo pages. The Times, Map, and handbook are all sent, postage paid, and are the greatest bargain ever offered in the newspaper way.
