This map was produced by Fort Abstract Co. of Red Cloud said here to keep a complete set of books and plats of all towns and sub-divisions. Illustrations depict buildings in Red Cloud various residences of town citizens and appealing views of the town. Red Cloud was founded on homestead land in 1871 by a group of men including Silas Garber 1833-1905 who would go on to serve as Nebraska's Governor from 1875 to 1879. The town was named by Garber and local businessmen in honor of the chief of the Olgalala tribe of the Teton-Lakota Sioux. When Webster County was organized Red Cloud was designated as the county seat. In 1879 the Burlington & Missouri River Railway reached Red Cloud -- stimulating immigration from America's eastern seaboard and bringing a variety of cultural heritages to town including those of Germany Scandinavia Great Britain and Canada Austro-Hungary aka Bohemians and so forth. The town's cultural melting pot was marvelously depicted in the literary works of Willa Cather who lived in Red Cloud for several years with her family beginning in 1883 at the age of nine. Cather would use the town as the basis for such fictional towns as "Black Hawk" in My Antonia 1918. We could find no copies recorded in OCLC. A few small old water stains to the rear cover short separations and small punctures along old folds. Argus Steam Print, n. d. (ca 1878). unknown

82(2)S. Original Karton mit illustriertem Deckeltitel. Einband etwas berieben und fleckig, untere Ecken zum Teil eselsohrig, sonst gut.
(ca. 29,6 x 21 cm). 2 S. Original-Prospekt mit illustriertem Deckeltitel. Blatt wurde gefaltet, sonst gut erhalten. Altersentsprechend guter Zustand. Der historische Prospekt enthält zahlreiche Modelldetails, Kurzbeschreibungen und mehr als 20 Abbildungen von Produkten der Firma aus Nürnberg. Darunter sind Spannungs- und Strommesser (Tavo), Thermo- und Ventilmeßgeräte, Galvanometer, Beleuchtungs-Messer (Tavolux, Tamilux, Amalux, Rektolux), Belichtungs-Zeitmesser (Metrophot, Tamiphot) und viele mehr. Die Firma wurde mit Beginn des "Dritten Reichs" in "Metrawatt AG" zwangsumbenannt, welche in veränderter Form noch heute besteht. Die jüdische Eignerfamilie Guggenheimer emigrierte in den Folgejahren. Interessant in dieser Hinsicht sind auf dem Prospekt die deutlichen Vermerke "Deutsche Qualitätsarbeit" in einer sich absetzenden altdeutschen Schrift, welche in zunehmend judenfeindlichen Umgebung um 1930 ganz sicher bewusst eingesetzt worden sind zugunsten einer auch weiterhin erfolgreichen Bewerbung der Produkte. Der Prospekt ist wahrscheinlich nur kurz vor der Machtübernahme entworfen worden. Seltener Prospekt für Meßgerätetechnik der jüdischen Firma vor 1933!
