Toward the end of the nineteenth century, Mexico took enormous strides to modernize under the leadership of José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz (president, 1876-1880, 1884-1911). Under Porfirio Díaz, the "científicos", an elite group of technical and intellectual advisers, assisted in planning for Mexico's economic recovery that was based on further development of all forms of communication linkages. This 1884 communications map of Mexico, a prime example of late nineteenth century maps motivated by commercial interest, includes railroad lines (completed and under construction), roads, telegraph lines, cable lines, ship routes by destination, cities and principal towns, and state and international boundaries. A primary purpose of map is to show the link between U.S. railroad lines and operating and proposed Mexican railroad lines. Map also gives distances from various cities throughout Mexico to Mexico City. Also offices of Wells Fargo are shown throughout the map. The map is signed by F. A. Labadie in San Francisco, and it is possible that he served as an agent for Wells Fargo. A practically identical copy of the map, shown as 2 of 2, is to be found in the same jacket.

559. [The Oztoticpac lands map]. [ca. 1540]. Red and black ink. On amatl, 76 x 84 cm. Scale not given. 88-690436

This map is a Mexican pictorial document with Spanish and Nahuatl writing showing litigation among several Native and European claimants surrounding the Oztoticpac estate of Aztec ruler, Carlos Ometochtli Chichimecatecotl. That ruler had been executed by Spanish officials on November 30, 1539. The map reflects the pre-European Mesoamerican tradition of mapmaking using glyphs and indigenously produced paper (amatl). The document depicts an inventory of landed properties once owned by the executed Aztec ruler, Carlos. Most of the drawings on the map are plans of fields with indigenous measurements and place glyphs. Near the upper left is a plan of several houses within a precinct. In the upper right is a map showing about 75 identified land plots. Additional fields are drawn in the lower right. In the lower left appear European fruit trees and grape vines which had been grafted on to indigenous tree stock. The latter image is unique among all known Mexican indigenous pictorial documents. The segments of the orchards are found in Oztoticpac and in three other locations in the city of Texcoco, Mexico. Substantial introductory work on this rare pictorial manuscript is found in Howard F. Cline, "The Oztoticpac Lands Map of Texcoco, 1540," A La Carte (Library of Congress, Washington, 1972), 5-33.

The purpose of this map of Mexico City is to provide information on the condition of city streets and houses, including drainage, in response to the efforts of Viceroy Revillagigedo (Juan Vicente Güemes Pacheco de Padilla) to improve the city. Revillagigedo was the fifty second Viceroy of New Spain serving from 1789 to 1794. During his tenure, this enlightened official undertook a massive overhaul of the social, financial, and administrative organization of New Spain. He ordered the first census of New Spain, reorganized the militia, strengthened frontier garrisons, and promoted further exploration of the Pacific Coast. This map reflects the Viceroy's interest in improving the capital city of New Spain through paving, lighting, and public health projects. Map includes an extensive keyed legend, notes on urban development, and is color coded to indicate existing conditions of streets and houses. This map is a copy of Castera's original map prepared by Manuel Ygnacio de Jesus de Aguila in 1794.

In 1519, the site of Veracruz was where Hernando Cortés's conquest of Mexico began. From its earliest years, Veracruz served as the principal Atlantic port of New Spain. With the expansion of the Spanish empire to Asia in the 1560's and concurrent with the linking of Mexican trade with Manila, Veracruz served as the Atlantic terminus for that trade. Due to its vital commercial position, Veracruz throughout its history has been the first point of attack for numerous invasions of New Spain and later independent Mexico. These well executed plans of the city and port of Veracruz, prepared by the Frenchman, Bois St. Lys, include coastline, coastal features, soundings, navigational hazards, streams, roads, fortifications, the city, and pictorial representation of relief. The detailed plan of the city of Veracruz includes a complete street grid. A keyed legend contained in an elegant architectural frame provides references to military, religious, and government buildings. On verso appears a portion of the printed military "Plan de Vesel" by Jaillot in 1782.
