USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Rio Grande defines the western edge of this 1940s landscape, serving as the international boundary between the United States and Mexico. This survey, compiled from 1939 aerial photography, reveals a borderland dominated by large ranching and farming operations. The settlement of Eagle Pass serves as the primary hub in the north, while the southern reaches feature the community of El Indio and extensive agricultural infrastructure, including the Milton Frank Farms and their nearby silos.
