Description: Map of Mining Claims Butte and Vicinity Montana Author: Harper, Joseph H.; MacDonald, Malcolm L. Title: Map of Mining Claims Butte and Vicinity Montana Publication: Butte, Silver Bow County: Harper & Macdonald, 1905 Edition: 1st Edition Description: Hardcover. Fold out, color printed lithograph map on linen, 29" x 37 1/8" in brown cloth binder with red backstrip reinforced with patterned tape. Compiled and published by Joseph H. Harper, U. S. Land Dept. and Malcolm L. MacDonald, U. S. Deputy Mineral Land Surveyor. Contains a "List of claims too small to name on map." This map of "The Richest Hill on Earth," shows just how dense activity was in the city at the turn of the century, creating considerable wealth for many of its prospectors and speculators. With the influx of industrial workers and the dangerous conditions of the trade, Butte became a focal point of union activism, and came to be known as "The Gibraltar of Unionism." The map also shows rail lines, topographical features, and landmarks such as the Butte Racing Association track. Very good condition with several claims hand colored in red of varying patterns, and a few pencil markings. Spine of binder is mostly worn away under the tape and there is some chipping and soiling to front pastedown. Cloth covers show some rubbing and wearl. OCLC locates 2 copies of this scarce, important map. Very Good.
