For your consideration are these three framed antique U.S. maps. One is from an 1858 textbook depicting the five section division of the U.S. at the time: Eastern States, Middle States, Southern States, and Territories. A second map is from 1885 and depicts the 1883-84 County configuration of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming--all prior to statehood. The third map, 1889, depicts the four new states that year: South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, and Washington. Framed with the map is a cancelled U.S. postage stamp commemorating the 50th Anniversary of statehood for the four in 1939. The maps appear to be hand-tinted and are in good condition. The largest of the three measures 25.5" L x 11" W.
