The city of Los Angeles
was founded in 1781 by Felipe de Neve, a Spanish governor. In 1821,
after declaring independence from Spain, the city became a part of
Mexico. Following the Mexican-American War, in 1848 the city became a
part of the United States. Two years later, the city was incorporated.
Experiencing frequent booms in population, it has grown to be the second
largest city in the United States. This beautiful map provides a look
back to the early days of the city. Complete reference list below.

at the time it was collected for conservation are left un-retouched, as
they reflect the character and charm of the vintage original. Some major imperfections, such as dark fold lines have been removed when
possible. Maps are printed as ordered and are not returnable unless
received damaged. |
