Additional Details

Anonymous map of the United States showing an independent Texas and California as part of Mexico. Compared to a similar example in the Norman B. Leventhal Map Center Collection subtle differences are seen: variances in the main typography and more notably at the upper left where that copy states "Boundary U.S. settled in 1846 British retaining the right to navigate Columbia River" is here labeled "Line Proposed Convention of the 20th October 1818".
