Description
Old Map Title: "Map of the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company and the Southern Pacific Company " This is an enhanced, restored reproduction of an old railroad map of the Oregon region circa 1898. Shows railroads and steamship routes in late 19th century for Oregon and Washington, the area referred to as the Northwest. The map features these words above and below the map: "The Northwest presents the greatest opportunities for settlers of any portion of "Uncle Sam's" domain. For grains, grasses, fruit, live stock and minerals the territory embraced in this map in unequalled [sic]." Map shows towns, rivers, lakes, Indian Reservations, mountains, and many interesting details.
I have selected interesting, old graphic images for digital restoration and editing. The images were then adjusted and brightened to make the images suitable for display and other purposes. The resulting image brings out many details and landmarks, making this map a great historical reference and conversation piece. © 2020 for this enhanced, restored reproduction.
