(NY-Niagara Area) A Romance Map of the Niagara Frontier, Wickser-Green, c. 1930
While the eastern reaches of New York settled and grew, it's easy to overlook how much the western reaches of the state were a frontier for a long time. This map looks at the key people, places and important moments, that changed the trajectory of the region and nation. From the Burning of Buffalo, to Indian Council with Red Jacket, to Byrd's "Antartic Plane" that was made in Buffalo, we see dozens of historical vignettes. Shows the "Evolution of Great Lakes Craft", and notes the "First Steam Railway on Frontier". This crisp early edition is not dated.
Condition is very good. Image size is approximately 22.5 x 18 (inches)
