About This Item
Des Moines: Kenyon Company, 1915. About very good.. Folding map, 15.5 x 20 inches. Original yellow printed card covers. Covers lightly soiled. Map printed in color with red text overprinting. Closed tear in gutter margin, a few small separations at folds. Minor soiling. A neat promotional item for farm land in Ness County, Western Kansas, printed for distribution by local real estate concern Floyd & Floyd. Its chief feature is a 1915 Kenyon Company map of Kansas, with counties shaded in six colors and the best roads for automobiles delineated in green. The map is overprinted in red with a circle over Ness City and some promotional text for county land, which, "Adjoins the best Wheat and Alfalfa lands in the State where lands of Similar quality are selling for two to three times as much as ours." The verso contains a much more expansive text on the virtues of the county, including its geographical situation, its possibilities for agriculture and ranching, and the sophistication of Ness City, which is complemented by reproductions of photographs at the four corners of the sheet.
