Antique Texas county map published ca. 1925 by Wolf & Bennett for the Texas General Land Office. General Land Office maps show land patents, block and tract numbers, landowners, towns, railroads, and portions of adjacent counties where property boundaries extend beyond county limits.
This map shows Lipscomb County, est. 1876. The county seat of Lipscomb had not yet been founded at the time of this survey, and so is not pictured. Indeed, this map of the northeastern-most county in the state is most remarkable for the nearly complete lack of human activity. The exception is a small piece of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway that just catches the southeast corner of the county. Lipscomb County is bordered on the north and east by Oklahoma, on the west by Ochitree County, and on the south by Hemphill County.
This map also indicates locations of drilling rigs, producing and abandoned oil and gas wells, and dry holes.
Condition Notes:
- Uniform age toning, a bit darker along edges, paper somewhat fragile, original binding holes present.
- Excellent overall condition.
