C. 1877 MAP, EUROPE, ALEXANDER KEITH JOHNSTON, NATIONAL ATLAS A circa 1877 edition of Scottish cartographer Alexander Keith Johnston's (1804–1871) map of the whole of Europe, from 'The National Atlas of Historical, Commercial and Political Geography'. This map shows the major railroads of the time in bold dark lines, trains still being a new and fascinating technology. Germany, France, and Britain have the largest networks of the time. The St. Petersburg to Moscow railway in Russia can be seen, including the legendary bend which folktales say is due to the hubris of Emperor Nicholas I and his boot licking engineers. 19th century. Dimensions: 21 1/4 x 25 1/2 in., (54 x 64.8 cm.) Condition: Foxing in places. Some fraying to edges. Please make all inquiries before bidding.
