A print reproduction of
Putnam, CT, drawn and published by O. H. Bailey in 1877, lithograph by
C. H. Vogt. Founded in 1855, the town was named for American
Revolutionary War General Israel Putnam. A classic New England mill
town, Putnam was uniquely suited to supplying clothing and other items
to the military during the American Civil War, with the presence of
several mills and a railroad in town. Eight mills are referenced on this
beautifully colored and detailed map of Putnam. The elegant, decorative
title cartouche makes this a map a charming example of a 19th Century
lithograph. Complete reference list below.
