I am looking for more information about a Rand McNally 1901 Railroad Map of the continental United States.
It measures 44"wide x 38"high and shows all the rail lines at that time.
What I have been told is that this map was a "throw away" and that is probably why I can not find anything like it.
I found it in the garage and it wasn't in very good condition. Yes, only my grandparents would have hung on to it. But, I couldn't just dump it after it had survived this long. Is there any value to it?

AR8Jason, do you know anything about this sort of thing?

Thank you so much, AR8Jason. You really came through with a wealth of information. It's the background that the map was missing.
