About the Item
Arkansas Map by Colton, USA Published c.1864 – Hand-Colored County Map
This is a finely engraved and hand-colored map titled Arkansas, published by G.W.
C.B. Colton
Co. in New York circa 1864. It shows the state of Arkansas in detail, with counties individually shaded in pastel pink, green, yellow, and tan colors. The map clearly labels towns, cities, counties, railroads, rivers, and topographical features.
Major towns and cities such as Little Rock, Fort Smith, Helena, Pine Bluff, Camden, and Hot Springs are marked. Railroads are indicated with fine black lines, reflecting the rapid expansion of rail networks in the southern United States after the Civil War. County boundaries are outlined in red for clarity.
Colton was a leading American cartographic publisher in the mid-19th century, known for producing high-quality atlases and wall maps combining accuracy with attractive hand coloring. His maps of U.S. states remain highly collectible for their historic detail, clear layout, and decorative appeal, ideal for Americana collections or interior decoration.
