Amazing work drawn by T. M. Fowler from Morrisville, PA. The detail of this map simply has to be seen. Unbelievable renderings are included of some of the major buildings and landmarks in Denison, Texas at the time. This image was originally published by T. M. Fowler and James B. Moyer.

The panoramic map was a popular cartographic form used to depict U.S. and Canadian cities and towns during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Known also as bird's-eye views, perspective maps, and aero views, panoramic maps are non-photographic representations of cities portrayed as if viewed from above at an oblique angle. Although not generally drawn to scale, they show street patterns, individual buildings, and major landscape features in perspective.
