  • (California – Los Angeles) Map of Territory Annexed to the City of Los Angeles...

    From its original boundaries of 4 square miles when it was incoporated in 1850 to 1928 when it was 441.235 squares miles, it has always been a rapidly going city. But from the late 1900's to the 1920's LA gained dozens of additions. This folding map walks through each addition (whether annexation or consolidation), naming them and giving their date and size in a small table at the bottom. The base map includes the major roads as well as some topography and hydrography.

    Condition is good with one supportive repair to the folds. Image size is 23 x 16.5, some printed color
