Sin Encuadernar - No binding. Condition: Bueno. Cromolitografía, montado sobre lino. Al parecer el primer mapa de Argentina a una escala de 1:2,000,000. Doblado: 23.7 x 17.5 cm; desplegado: 136 x 96 cm. Una buena copia del primer mapa de Argentina de Ludwig. Poco común: solo se registran dos copias en WorldCat, ambas en Inglaterra; no está listada en Rarebookhub. Este mapa ilustra un período de prosperidad y crecimiento en Argentina que llevó a una expansión masiva de los servicios públicos y las redes de comunicación en todo el país. Uno de los principales motores de esta expansión fue la agricultura en la región pampeana: entre 1890 y 1930, el área cultivada creció de aproximadamente 2 millones de hectáreas a más de 25 millones. Con gran parte de esa producción destinada a los mercados extranjeros, este crecimiento impulsó la rápida construcción de nuevas infraestructuras de transporte y comunicación, todas representadas en este mapa. En la parte superior del mapa grande hay cuatro recuadros: uno que muestra la parte sur del país (hasta la Patagonia) y los otros tres que representan las redes ferroviarias alrededor de Buenos Aires, Tucumán y Rosario, respectivamente. En la parte inferior, hay un índice alfabético de las "ciudades, pueblos y estaciones de tren" del país. Este mapa fue publicado por Pablo Ludwig, un cartógrafo destacado, pero poco estudiado, radicado en Buenos Aires. Probablemente de origen alemán, Ludwig ganó notoriedad trabajando con Arthur von Seelstrang (Arturo Seelstrang), el científico prusiano que exploró la región del Chaco para el gobierno argentino. Cuando Seelstrang publicó su Atlas del Instituto Geográfico Argentino (1885-1893), lo eligió como grabador de los mapas. Tras la finalización del atlas, Ludwig comenzó a publicar sus propios mapas, comenzando con un plano de Buenos Aires (1893). Alrededor de 1900, comenzó a publicar mapas bajo el nombre de Oficina Cartográfica Ludwig, una empresa activa hasta al menos 1959. Estamos ofreciendo la primera edición del mapa; una segunda edición actualizada se publicó en 1908, añadiendo notablemente la nueva línea San Luis - Bahía Blanca. -------------------------- Colored lithograph, mounted on linen. Probably the first map of Argentina at a scale of 1:2,000,000. Folded: 23.7 x 17.5 cm; unfolded: 136 x 96 cm. A good copy of Ludwig's first large map of Argentina. Uncommon: only two copies are registered in WorldCat, both in England; not listed in Rarebookhub. Titled General Map of Railways, Couriers, Navigation, Postal Services, and Telegraphs of the Argentine Republic, it illustrates a period of prosperity and growth in Argentina, which led to a massive expansion of public services and communication networks throughout the country. One of the key drivers of this expansion was agriculture in the Pampas region: from 1890 to 1930, the cultivated area grew from about 2 million hectares to more than 25 million. With much of that production aimed at foreign markets, this growth fueled the rapid construction of new transportation an SPA. Good (bueno).

Hardcover. Very good. Dissected and mounted on linen as issued, with original boards present but separate. Some scuffing near fold areas, but overall excellent. Size 53.75 x 37.75 Inches. This is a 1908 Pablo Ludwig map of Argentina's railroad system. The map illustrates a period of prosperity and growth in Argentina that led to a massive expansion of the national railroad network. Historical Context Although railroad construction in Argentina began in the 1860s and saw rapid expansion throughout the late 19th century, the Baring Crisis, an acute global recession also known as the Panic of 1890, derailed progress. Nonetheless, by 1908, when this map was issued, the country was in the midst of another railroad boom, and trackage increased from roughly 9,000 km in 1890 to 29,000 km by 1910. A Closer Look More than a dozen combinations of color and pattern differentiate railroad lines, all of which are labeled. Telegraph lines, mail routes, and maritime connections are also noted. Insets of the regions around Buenos Aires, Rosario, and Tucuman are situated along the top border, and an inset detailing southern South America and Tierra del Fuego occupies the upper left. An alphabetical index of hundreds of cities, towns, ports, and other locations is included along the bottom border. Publication History and Census This map was created and published by Pablo Ludwig in 1908. We see no examples cataloged in any institutional collection, dealer catalogs, or auction records, making this the only known surviving example.

Sin Encuadernar. Condition: Muy bien. 31 x 44 inches / 112 x 79 cm. Rare separately issued map showing the railroads of the Republic of Argentina, published in London by Mc Corquodale & Co., for William Field, Secretario de la Oficina de Ajustes. The map captures the industrial and agriculltural growth of Argentina at the end of National Autonomist Hegemony, a period of tremendous growth in the Argentine population and economy, spurred by government reforms and a mass influx of European immigrants. The map is divided by states and shows in great detail, the operating railoads in Argentina at the beginning of the 20th Century, with the various lines identified by different colors. and dashed lines showing projected railroad lines. Several insets show the urban and suburban lines around Tucuman, Mendoza, Buenos Aires, Rosario, San Francisco, and Bahia Blanca, with a larger inset showing the railoads in Patagonia. A note at the bottom indicates that the map includes all operating lines and lines under construction. The map is apparently very rare. We find no recorded examples of the map and no examples in any on line search.
