The Arbuckle Coffee Company issued many of these maps together with Views of the principal cities of the world by way of promotional Trade Cards. The cards themselves, although still on offer are almost inevitably in worn condition, whereas the Chromolithograph Maps from the Atlas are mostly in excellent condition.
Each map gives the area of the country with its population at the time printed. The maps are highly decorative being enhanced with local scenes, views, trades, etc.
An excellent and refreshing addition to any cartographic collector's portfolio.
