This is the first separate map offered by the AMC at a cost of 50 cents. The following is provided by Adam Jared Apt on his website description for whitemountainhistory: "This was the first pocket map separately issued by the AMC. Starting in the late 18th century cartographers developed several alternative methods of using hachures to convey relief. This map although issued ten years after the first contour maps of the White Mountains eschews contour lines and instead is the first to apply one of these systems of hachures to the White Mountains to create an impression of contours. It and the Pickering map of 1882 are the only ones to use the AMC's novel system of mountain nomenclature which soon after fell into desuetude. In addition to the complex system of hachures this map uses esoteric icons perhaps unique to this map of circles and arcs on the summits of peaks to convey information about the terrain. Other states and editions: The AMC issued this map at the scale of 1/150000 also in 1887. This smaller version was included in later editions of M. F. Sweetser The White Mountains: A Handbook for Travellers." 'For Sale by Clarke and Carruth 340 Washington Street Boston. Price 50 cents.' printed on the rear cover.
