This is Parkinson's Map of the Comstock Lode a longitudinal map of the area mines that permeated the area in the mid to late 1800s. The piece, professionally framed and mounted, measures 40" x 33" and shows locations of the hundreds of mines that honey combed beneath the streets of Virginia City, south to Devil's Gate and Silver City and north to Sutro and the Independent. Some of the other mines plotted with shaft depths, include the Julia, Chollar, Ophir, Alamo, Buckeye, Pride of Washoe, Andes, West Point, Baltic and several others. The original Parkinson cover is also mounted within the frame. This is an historic, informative as well as attractive wall hanging, that is in near new condition with some light crease folds barely evident. - Ken & Rosemary Roberts Collection -59011
