192175088St. Paul: Northern Pacific Railway Company 1921-1930. First edition. Ten consecutive issues. Folio 12 x 9 inches. Variously paginated. Many charts but no illustrations. All but the Twenty-seventh and the Thirty-fourth Reports have large folding maps bound in at rear of report. Original printed wrappers and all bound together in a stabbed-and-sewn black cloth binder. Very good.The Northern Pacific Railway reporting mark NP was a transcontinental railroad that operated across the northern tier of the western United States from Minnesota to the Pacific Northwest. It was approved by Congress in 1864 and given nearly forty million acres 62000 sq mi; 160000 km2 of land grants which it used to raise money in Europe for construction. Construction began in 1870 and the main line opened all the way from the Great Lakes to the Pacific when former President Ulysses S. Grant drove in the final "golden spike" in western Montana on September 8 1883. The railroad had about 6800 miles 10900 km of track and served a large area including extensive trackage in the states of Idaho Minnesota Montana North Dakota Oregon Washington and Wisconsin. In addition the NP had an international branch to Winnipeg Manitoba Canada. The main activities were shipping wheat and other farm products cattle timber and minerals; bringing in consumer goods transporting passengers; and selling land. The Northern Pacific merged with other lines in 1970 to form the Burlington Northern Railroad which in turn merged with the Santa Fe to become the BNSF Railway in 1996. The main interest here is in the very detailed maps. Northern Pacific Railway Company hardcover
191476234San Francisco: Pacific Gas and Electric Co. 1914. First and only edition. Quarto 9 x 11 1/2 inches. 4 double leaves 12 double leaves of colorized photographic illustrations. Publisher's quarter brown boars over green boards green endpaper to match. Head of spine a but bumped else a bright and fresh copy.The color illustrations are all of P.G. & E works and include; Electra Power House; Cordelia Substation;De-Sabla Power House; Paterson Ranch Pumping Plant; Centerville Power House; Carquinez Straits Crossing; Spillway-Spaulding Damn; Potrero Gas Works; San Rafael Substation; Colgate Power-House; Brown's Valley Ditch; Champion Mine-Nevada County.Ostensibly issued as a keepsake for Christmas of 1914 the real reason was likely to brag about the completion in 1913 of the huge Big Creek plant the gem of the P.G & E system. It is estimated that there were over 100 hydroelectric plants operational in California by 1914. These ranged from small local plants to large-scale projects supplying power to major cities. This was a very deluxe item so it is probable that PGE presented it only major stockholders This is borne out by the fact that OCLC only records 9 copies Printing colorized photographs in books in 1914 was a very complex and costly process. Special paper had to be used thus the french-fold binding here and the technology was still in its nascent form. But the illustrations fairly burst with color. This was at P.G. & E.'s most muscular; in the 21st century the company filed twice for bankruptcy. (Pacific Gas and Electric Co.) hardcover
190574076Portland : Printed by Himes & Pratt for the Grand Centennial Fair 1905. First edition of this map of the Columbia Basin published on the occasion of the Lewis & Clark Centennial. 28 x 21.5 cm colored. The verso contains a bit of boosterism called "Portland's Inner Trade Area" by D. H. Stearns. Two old fold-lines else fine.There is only one copy of this map located by OCLC and it is obviously a facsimile published by the Oregon Historical Society. Their facsimile is quite a bit smaller and the verso bears the letterhead of the Oregon Historical Society. D. H. Stearns was an early immigrant to Oregon. In 1866 after serving in the Civil War he left his wife in Virginia and moved to Portland. There he was involved in many pursuits including being the founder of the very influential Republican newspaper The Portland Bee. His article is a long reassurance to people thinking of coming to Oregon that there is still plenty of government land available in the eastern part of the state. Printed by Himes & Pratt for the Grand Centennial Fair unknown

1917List1730Chicago: Poole Brothers 1917. Folding map measuring 38 ½ x 26 ¾ inches. Tape repairs to verso some tears at folds and edges still bring and attractive good to very good overall with excellent restoration potential. A map of the canneries in Alaska British Columbia and Washington operated by the Deming and Gould Company who were influential in the growth of the Alaskan salmon trade. The map’s date of printing 1917 suggests that perhaps it was related to the war effort as salmon demand increased during this period. The Demings based in Chicago were influential in the growth of the salmon trade in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest founding Pacific American Fisheries Inc. in 1899 and continuing in various iterations until their sale of the firm in 1934 due to president E.B. Deming’s ailing health. The map shows seventeen different canneries several on the Alaska peninsula and the one in Bellingham. We find no record of this imprint only a later and small version held at the University of Washington. Poole Brothers unknown
