This map demonstrates his great ingenuity and flair for pictorial illustrations, his irreverence, inimitable sense of humor, and his serious passion for particulars of the land.

Further, a Vishnu temple, the Freya Castle, a temple to Thor, a Brahma temple, and even a Zoroaster temple. Each edifice or description of such is accompanied by an appropriately fashioned and attired personage of that religion, period or place. A myriad of religious and mythical figures decorate this fanciful map.

An early Spanish explorer is seen planting a flag and claiming the soil for Spain. Another is seen lifting a cross before one of the many missions later founded by them. Another historical allusion is the Russian Orthodox Church which was part of the original Fort Ross. Two Orthodox priests carrying a cross are represented nearby.

A number of forts, Indian Reservations, surveys, mining districts of considerable variety, geological features and local political divisions are also rendered in detail. The amount of information rendered by Johnson is quite astonishing, and comprises an encyclopedia of wealth regarding the area covered by the map.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe original map of this region was published between 1861 and 1870 and went through a number of different states during this time period as Johnson strove to depict this critical period of westward expansion in the region. Thus, collecting the various states of this map has long been popular for Americana and southwestern map aficionados. The plates were updated annually and sometimes even issued in multiple variants in the course of a year.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhile most of the maps of Johnson’s 1863 atlas were based on earlier versions of the atlas’s maps, this map was derived by dissecting plates of his 1859 wall map North America and then incorporating or superimposing more contemporary detail. This map shows considerably more detail in the mountainous regions of California, Nevada, and Colorado. Arizona and New Mexico appear as independent territories but, for the most part, adhere to the old 'New Mexico' county structure. The southern boundary of Nevada with Arizona is set such that Las Vegas is firmly within Arizona. The Utah-Nevada Border also varies from its contemporary setting. The Colorado Gold Region, which was first discovered in 1858, is well labeled.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInventory #10993\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"The Vintage Map Shop, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"18.5 x 26 Inches (Original Size)","offer_id":5259246469152,"sku":"10993a","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"21.5 x 30 Inches","offer_id":5275975483424,"sku":"10993b","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25.5 x 36 Inches","offer_id":5275975516192,"sku":"10993c","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 x 42 inches","offer_id":39797436973104,"sku":"10993d","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1404\/2135\/products\/10993a_77e0030e-8433-491d-85c3-d00a81cef295.jpg?v=1624045483"},{"product_id":"11059","title":"1941 Evolution of the Cowboy – Sweetheart of the Rodeo","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBy:\u003c\/strong\u003e Joseph Jacinto Mora\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1941 (published) Monterey, CA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize of Original:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30.75 x 23.25 inches (78x 52.7 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an exceptional example of one of Jo Mora’s most exciting prints, The Evolution of the Cowboy.” Originally done in 1933, this example is the second variation, identified by the exclusion of Salinas Rodeo scenes at the top and the addition of the JO MORA PUBLICATIONS, MONTEREY CALIFORNIA located bottom left of the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike most of Jo Mora’s works, there is a lot going on with regards to its visual presentation and information given.

The knowledge obtained from the expedition is show in detail that sharply contrasts the vast unexplored lands of present day California, Nevada, Utah, and Oregon, which was at the time regarded as Spanish Territory. Also detailed within the map are the notes and discoveries of Zebulon Pike's expedition to the Rockies (1806 - 1807).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the time of printing, America was on the move west, though the progress of civilization with bound to the the waterways of the Great Lakes, and the Ohio and Mississippi River. Illinois and Michigan are shown as territories. Other noteworthy territories include Mississippi, which in this map includes present day Alabama, the Missouri Territory that not only encompasses much of the western portion of America, but extends north into present day Canada, and the Northwest Territory that spans from present day northern Illinois (containing Chicago) up through Wisconsin, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Minnesota and part of what is now North Dakota.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile the 1755 Mitchell map of North America was instrumental in distinguishing geo-political borders of the 18th century and beyond, (most notably for its use during the 1783 Treaty of Paris) a similar comparison can be made for the Melish map and it's importance throughout the 19th century. One such example of the important role the map played in devising such boundaries can be found in Article V of the 1848 Treaty of Hidalgo Guadeloupe. The map was used to define a new U.S. \/ Mexico border that consisted of the Rio Grande northwest from its mouth to the point where it strikes the southern boundary of New Mexico (roughly 32 degrees north), then due west from this point to the 110th meridian west, then north along the 110th Meridian to the Gila River and down the river to its mouth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs previously noted, the map was also utilized as a visual embodiment of Manifest Destiny. Thomas Jefferson referred to the map as \"a luminous view of the comparative possessions of different powers in our America.\" Shortly after the publication of this map, the Anglo-American Convention of 1818 extended the U.S.-Canadian border westwards along the 49th parallel from the Lake of the Woods to the Rocky Mountains.Within the same treaty, the British and Americans agreed to jointly occupy the Oregon Country that at the time extended North of the 49th parallel into present day British Columbia. This treaty essentially guaranteed the United States a contiguous stretch of land from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInventory #11484\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"the Vintage Map Shop, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"22 x 36 inches \/ Archival Matte","offer_id":31950354087984,"sku":"11484a","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"22 x 36 inches \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354120752,"sku":"11484awc","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25.5 x 42 inches \/ Archival Matte","offer_id":31950354153520,"sku":"11484b","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25.5 x 42 inches \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354186288,"sku":"11484bwc","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"29.5 x 48 inches \/ Archival Matte","offer_id":31950354513968,"sku":"11494c","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"29.5 x 48 inches \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354546736,"sku":"11494cwc","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"33 x 54 inches \/ Archival Matte","offer_id":31950354219056,"sku":"11484d","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"33 x 54 inches \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354251824,"sku":"11484dwc","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36 x 59 inches - Original Size \/ Archival Matte","offer_id":31950354317360,"sku":"11484e","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36 x 59 inches - Original Size \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354350128,"sku":"11484ewc","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"39 x 64 inches \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354415664,"sku":"11484fwc","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"43 x 70 inches \/ Peel \u0026 Stick Wall Mural","offer_id":31950354481200,"sku":"11484gwc","price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1404\/2135\/products\/11484-1a.jpg?v=1672352883"},{"product_id":"arizona-welcomes-you-1942","title":"1942 Arizona Welcomes You","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBy:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eGeorge Avey\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDate of Original:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1942 (published) Arizona\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOriginal Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e21.5 x 16.5 inches (54.5 x 42)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is a fine print reproduction of a joyful little pictorial map of Arizona by George Avey.
