If anyone finds themselves in Clemson, SC, be sure to take a look at the
maps hanging on the wall in John Calhoun's plantation office, the small
building behind the main house

In addition to a circa 1835 Mitchell wall map of the U.S and an 1822 John
Wilson map of SC, there is also a gorgeous example of John La Tourrette's
map of Louisiana. And although it has significant condition issues, I still
was quite thrilled to see John Robinson's 1819 map of Mexico, Louisiana, and
the Missouri Territory.
