Item 1 - Map of the State of Oregon

112 x 105 cm; printed

A color-coded map of Oregon, partitioning it into early county configurations rendered in pastel shades. The northern border tracks the winding Columbia River alongside Washington, while the left edge meets the Pacific Ocean. A prominent, hand-drawn purple ink line with small ‘X’ marks carves an L-shaped territory through central counties like Crook and Harney. These marked territories likely align with areas assigned to the Irish Capuchin friars for their early missionary work.
