1863 "Lloyd's New Map of the United States, the Canadas, and New Brunswick"
Located in Colorado Springs, CO
Presented is “Lloyd's New Map of the United States, the Canadas and New Brunswick, From the latest Surveys, Showing Every Railroad & Station Finished to June 1863, and the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts.” A large, Civil War-era hanging map of the United States and adjacent territories, this map covers the area from the Atlantic Ocean and extends as far west as the 103 meridian, to “Dacotah,” Nebraska, Kansas, "Indian Territory," and Texas. The southern continuation of Florida is shown in an inset map along the right margin. This map was published by J. T. Lloyd, in New York, in 1863. According to the publisher’s marking at lower right, this map was originally issued in two states: "in Sheets, Colored" for 50 cents, and "Varnished nicely, with Rollers" for $1.
Throughout the map, the counties are colored and the towns and cities well labeled. A reference key in the bottom margin provides symbols for railroads, turnpikes and wagon roads, state capitals, cities and towns, and village post offices. As emphasized in the map’s title, this map is especially notable for the countless railway lines and stations depicted, with distances noted between points, listing “every railroad and finished station to June 1863.” Additionally, two shipping agents and their routes are drawn out of New York City. The map includes details of the steamship routes into New York and Philadelphia from Liverpool and on to California and Oregon via an overland Nicaraguan trek, presumably to assist gold rush emigrants.
This expansive and impressive map depicts the eastern half of the United States in the third year of the Civil War. In order not to recognize the legitimacy of the Confederate States of America, each state is shown in the same manner as the Union states. The only indication that the American Civil War was in progress when this map was published is a printed notice that Gideon Wells, Secretary of the Navy, wishes to acquire a quote on 100 copies of Lloyd’s Mississippi River map...

1870 "40 Miles Around New York" by H. H. Lloyd, Hanging Map on Original Rollers
Located in Colorado Springs, CO
This is an antique hanging map, “40 Miles Around New York,” published by H. H. Lloyd in New York in 1870. Presented on its original wooden rollers, this small-scale lithographed wall map is centered on Manhattan and its surrounding counties. Throughout the map, the counties are colored and the towns and cities well labeled. A reference key in the bottom margin provides symbols for railroads, railroad stations, proposed railways, aqueducts and canals, cemeteries, blacksmith shops, wheelwrights, grist mills, and sawmills. This map is especially notable for the countless railway lines and stations depicted, with distances in miles noted between stations. Lloyd’s “40 Miles Around New York” was first issued in 1867 as a folding pocket map.
This map offers interesting insight about the map trade of the times, revealing the competitive nature of print publishing. In the lower margin, Lloyd warns customers of another, similar sounding named map business, presumably map dealer and known rival J. T. Lloyd. He states, “reasons that are well known to many compel us to state that we have no relationship and never had any business connection whatever with another party who advertises ‘Lloyds Maps.’” He also reminds his customers against potential fraud, stressing “We do not collect money in advance for Maps which have never been, and can never be, published. Our agents are not allowed to collect before delivery in any case.”
Henry Huggins Lloyd was born in Blandford, Massachusetts, in 1828. With his brothers, James Lloyd and Myron Lloyd, he worked as H. H. Lloyd & Co., mapmakers and maps publishers based in New York City. H. H. Lloyd & Co. had an impressive map output, especially during the Civil War. He issued maps of coastal cities and harbors, military maps of the northern and southern states, maps of key battle states like Virginia and New York, as well as larger United States maps...

As the title suggests, the map covers the United States from the Atlantic Ocean, west to Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas Territory, Indian Territory and Texas. Inset maps in the lower right include a “Map of the Western Portion of the United States” and the “Southern part of Florida.”
This is a classic map of the “Manifest Destiny” era, showing rapid westward expansion and new territories. Even the cartouche is symbolic of America’s evolution into a world superpower. A prominent bald eagle proudly perches atop the globe, implying dominance. Behind him, a bustling port city filled with trade ships...
