We can very occasionally offer old maps showing Texas during the time it was a Republic (c.1835-1845).
These do tend to sell very quickly and the intention of this page is to record all such maps passing through our inventory, in order to provide a reference point for this interesting and fascinating period in the history of cartography and of the State of Texas.
These maps are ideally suitable for framing, and are offered ON APPROVAL.
