Goldfield,NV - Esmeralda County - c1900 - Patrick, Eilliott & Camp Map & Stock Subscriptions :
A map of Nevada mining districts compiled from USGS and other official documents, printed by Patrick, Elliott & Camp, Inc. of Goldfield, Nevada and Wall Street, New York. Also, two blank subscription forms used to purchase 1) cash stock and 2) installment stock from the Patrick, Elliott & Camp firm. These are unsigned and unissued but have a partial date of 190x. The map measures 8.5 x 11." This map is a classic promotional map made for use by one of the West's leading mine promoters, L.L. Patrick. His signature is all over the map, in that the towns and mining camps where he promotes stock are shown in large bold letters, such as Wonder, and Greenwater. Mining Camps such as Ophir, near Silver Peak, never matured, even though the prospects there were heavily promoted.
