This map isn't part of any series, but we have other maps of the Pacific Northwest that you might want to check out.
A very nicely done birdseye map of Salem, Oregon [gmap] by a one-off (as far as I know) birdseye artist named Koppe.
I'm not sure why it took me so long to find this one, but I'm really digging this style. If anyone knows of any other Koppe work, I'd be happy to see it. This guy made more than just this, I have a hunch.
For more map resources and imagery from this period in Salem's history, check out the Oregon Historical Society's website.
This is a GREAT map! I just moved to Salem, and I work at the Capitol, and live on Capitol Street (no joke!) Super stoked to have stumbled across this, thank you!
