  • (CO.-historical) The Making of Colorado, Julia M.Stimson, 1935
    Compiled by the Denver Public Library, and created by Stimson, this is one of the rarest of early historical maps of the state. Showing key points of historic interest from mining regions to explorer and stage coach routes, it also includes dozens of passages from poems that capture something of the history and texture of life. Vignettes include Mt Holy Cross, Chief Ouray, Mesa Verde, Bison and more. Scarce. Condition is good with some marginal chipping loss and repairs. Image size is approximately 20.5 x 27 (inches)
