Description
Augustus Koch: Bird's Eye View of Aspen Pitkin Co. Colo. 1893 Published By The Apen Times
Remarkable and extremely rare birdseye view of Aspen by noted viewmaker Augustus Koch, the only known 19th Century view of Aspen.
In addition to its tremendous rarity (it would appear that there are less than 5 known examples of the view), the map provides a remarkably detailed depiction of the booming town of Aspen, illustrating 83 places of interest, including City Hall, Schools, the Roaring Fork Electric Light Company, Hotels (the Jerome, among others), 2 railroad depots and a publich Tramway, Theaters, Mines and Mining Company Offices, Tunnels, Fire Stations, the Post Office, Schools, Churches, Residences, Saloons and the Race Track, among other places of interest.
