Map Showing the Coal Leases on the Girard Estate, in Schuylkill and Columbia PA, 1878 A large horizontal and rare lithographed map with original hand color of the coal leases in the Girard Estate, Columbia County Pennsylvania, drawn by Heber S. Thompson and printed by J. H. Camp, Philadelphia. Leases are pastel colored and named, with the town of Frackville at the bottom center. Special Note: In Schuylkill and Columbia Counties there were eleven coal collieries in operation under ten leases. According to the 1879 Board report, the first coal removed and sold commercially from the Estate’s mines occurred in 1863. That year 40,788 tons were sent to market. In 1879, the amount marketed was 1,600,000 tons and royalties grosses $463,644. The Estates coal mines were leased with a royalty of forty cents per ton and progressed to fifty-four cents. Three- fourths of that was reinvested “in the real property in the City, so as not to diminish the fund upon which the support of the College must ultimately rely when these lands shall have been stripped of their mineral resources.” In 1889, also, “the income from the 35,407,710 tons of coal shipped this year has never been equaled in the history of the trust”. Condition: Very Good, four vertical folds hardly noticeable.
