A Gay Geography, with miners and mining scenes spread across the map alongside Charleston drawn as the state's urban center, its buildings and industrial activity marking it out from the surrounding hills. Little, Brown and Company of Boston published this 1935 pictorial atlas with text by Frank J. Taylor and illustrations by Ruth Taylor White, who trained at the Pratt Institute of Art and the Art Students League and gave each state one crowded illustrated page. West Virginia sits within the central Appalachian Mountains, and in 1935 its economy depended almost entirely on coal mining and farming, industries that had been hit hard by falling demand during the Depression, leaving many of its mountain counties among the hardest pressed in the entire atlas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharleston is illustrated with buildings and industrial scenes that mark it as the state's principal city, set against the exaggerated mountain topography drawn across the rest of the page.

Agriculture appears in smaller scenes alongside crops and livestock, a quieter counterpart to the coalfields. Town names and geographic regions are labeled with small accompanying drawings that add local detail, giving even the state's smaller hollows and valleys a place on the page. The page itself was produced by lithography, the process behind the atlas's crisp color blocks. Overall it reads as a portrait of a mountain state built on coal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFamily roots in the coalfields or the Appalachian hill towns make the case for this one, and so does having left Charleston or the mountains while still calling the state home, or working as a collector through this 1935 series one state at a time. Its illustrated, period style gives West Virginia's rugged landscape and mining history real decorative character, distinct from the plainer survey maps of the same era and a fitting complement to a print of a neighboring Appalachian state. It is available unframed in a range of sizes, from a small study print to a larger piece for an office or den wall.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheMapVault","offers":[{"title":"16x20 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521624395,"sku":"1562-16x20","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42x60cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521657163,"sku":"1562-A2","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521689931,"sku":"1562-18x24","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"50x70 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521722699,"sku":"1562-50x70","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (60x84cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521755467,"sku":"1562-A1","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x32 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521788235,"sku":"1562-24x32","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"70x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521821003,"sku":"1562-70x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"75x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521853771,"sku":"1562-75x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84x119cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519521886539,"sku":"1562-A0","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2456\/5323\/files\/SKU1562.jpg?v=1789683644"},{"product_id":"maryland-virginia-west-virginia-and-north-carolina-map-1865-regional-print-baltimore-richmond-wheeling-raleigh","title":"Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia \u0026 North Carolina Map 1865 Regional Print - Baltimore, Richmond, Wheeling, Raleigh","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis map of Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and North Carolina was produced by S. Augustus Mitchell Jr. and published in 1865 by E.H. Butler \u0026amp; Co., part of the Philadelphia-printed Mitchell's New Reference Atlas for Colleges, Libraries, Families and Counting Houses, a fifty-five-map atlas that kept pace with the country's own shifting borders as closely as it could. The sheet is hand-colored and engraved with relief shown by hachures, its county boundaries, railways, and rivers rendered in the same clean detail found across the series. It covers the mid-Atlantic South in 1865, the year the war ended at Appomattox in Virginia, and it records West Virginia as its own state for the first time, only two years after its 1863 split from Virginia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaryland, a Union border state throughout the war, is shown anchored by Baltimore and the Chesapeake Bay, its rail lines having carried much of the Union's wartime traffic. Virginia occupies the center of the sheet around Richmond, the former Confederate capital, its counties recording the ground fought over for four years. West Virginia appears as a distinct state for the first time on a Mitchell atlas map, its mountainous counties shown around Wheeling, the new state's capital. North Carolina closes the sheet to the south, centered on Raleigh, with its Piedmont and coastal counties both recorded in detail. Together the four states trace the ground where the war both began in earnest and ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe war that had convulsed this ground for four years ended at Appomattox, in Virginia, in the very year this sheet was published, a fact that gives it particular weight for anyone with Virginia or Carolina roots tracing ancestors against the Civil War's shifting state lines. Collectors, meanwhile, will note the rare early depiction of West Virginia as a separate state. A Baltimore or Richmond buyer will find it a striking record of two cities that sat on opposite sides of the war's front lines. It is available unframed in a full range of sizes, from a compact study print to a larger piece suited to an office, study, or hallway.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheMapVault","offers":[{"title":"16x20 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872176459,"sku":"1579-16x20","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42x60cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872209227,"sku":"1579-A2","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872241995,"sku":"1579-18x24","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"50x70 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872274763,"sku":"1579-50x70","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (60x84cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872307531,"sku":"1579-A1","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x32 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872340299,"sku":"1579-24x32","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"70x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872373067,"sku":"1579-70x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"75x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872405835,"sku":"1579-75x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84x119cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58519872438603,"sku":"1579-A0","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2456\/5323\/files\/SKU1579.jpg?v=1789683593"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.themapvault.com\/en-se\/collections\/west-virginia-maps.oembed","provider":"TheMapVault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
