A fantastic reproduction of this "Bird's Eye View" panoramic map. Library of Congress stamp, dated November 19, 1883, only one year after the creation of Livingston by the Northern Pacific Railway. Named for a Northern Pacific Railway executive, it was determined that the location was ideal for building its railroad shops to service steam trains before beginning the ascent over Bozeman Pass (5,600 ft.). Originally known as Clark City, and once home to Calamity Jane; Captain William Clark camped on the outskirts of what was to become Livingston while on the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1806. The map shows the bend of the Yellowstone River as it runs north and east toward Billings and the "Crazy Mountains" are noted in the background of one of the two elevated street illustrations in the lower right corner of the map. The two insets in the lower margins illustrate the First National Bank and the Albermarle European Hotel.
