Additional Information Published during a period of significant growth and prosperity as the nation neared the turn of the century, this bird's eye perspective of Lima, Ohio, captures a unique moment in the town's rich history as developments in manufacturing ushered on the industrial revolution. First established in 1831, Lima remains the political center of Allen County and has been central for producing equipment for the military. Oil was discovered in the 1880s, and for the following decade, Lima had the largest oilfield in the United States, with John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil establishing drills in the city. This caused a significant boom in population and attracted residents from across the American South and Western Europe.These immigrants established numerous neighborhoods and communities based on cultural lines, many of which exist to this day. Bird's eye perspectives were widely popular during the nineteenth century and served as marketing materials designed to entice residents and merchants alike and featured prominent civic features and economic opportunities. They bear a distinctive style that immediately transports the viewer back in time, creating an indelible bond between the past and present. They also contain unique artistic flourishes that are not commonly found in maps that are made for navigation. As the nation approached the twentieth century, Lima remained a thriving town as the Midwest enjoyed the prosperity that led to the so-called gilded age. Technological advances and the introduction of the automobile brought considerable changes to the region as manufacturing became the primary economic driver over farming.
