Map of Palestine, Texas from O.W. Gray's scarce National Atlas. In the 1880's, O.W. Gray & Son regularly published atlases of the world with a focus on the United States. Representatives of the firm traveled across the country to sell atlas subscriptions with an interesting pitch: subscribers who paid in advance would have their property or business labelled on the map of their city. Gray made sure to include in these maps the prominent families and citizens of note belonging to each city. The local editions of Gray’s atlas maps rarely come to market.
