Additional Information Published by Binger Hermann, this detailed illustration immediately transports the viewer back in time. Hermann was a two-time US Congressman who was head of the Department of the Interior in the late 19th century. These government-produced works held great significance for residents and merchants alike who relied on them for current railing information and showed the expansion and development of towns and cities. After being admitted into the United States in 1861 during the American Civil War as a free state under the Wyandotte Constitution, Kansas’ vast plains provided an economy driven by cattle ranching and agricultural pursuits. Though around the turn of the 20th century, when this map was produced, oil discoveries and greater access provided by rail lines were allowing Kansas to thrive economically. The iconic Chisholm trail from Texas to Chicago was established after stockyards in Abilene, Kansas, allowed cattleman a halfway point, and the yards could ship beef to eastern markets. The trail was critical for Texas cattle ranchers as railroads did not reach the region following the Civil War. German immigrants flocked to Kansas in the late 19th century and established thriving communities and towns as railroads expanded into the area. Farmers cultivated wheat throughout the region, and the state led wheat production in the 19th century. The state had experienced a significant spike in immigration throughout the 19th century and was enjoying prosperity and development. This depiction of the state nearing the turn of the century is an authentic piece of American cartographical history.

This eye-catching vintage map reproduction print makes the perfect gift for anyone that loves history and imagery.
