The map apparently was never issued with this guide (according to both LeRoy R. Hafen, in his notes to the 1953 ed. of Allen's guide, and Eberstadt, as quoted in the 1937 ed. of Wagner-Camp).
LC copy rebound, includes mounted tan paper wrapper. Contrary to what Wagner-Camp (4th ed.) implies in the notes, there is no map attached to the Library of Congress copy. The map in question, entitled, "Map of Kansas with route from Kansas City to the gold mines," along with the initial untrimmed and unopened quire (p. [1]-12) of the Gunnison/Gilpin "Guide to the Kansas gold mines at Pike's Peak," are in the vault of the Geography and Map Reading Room of the Library of Congress.
