This collection contains large-scale, detailed maps from 1898 to 1969, depicting the commercial, industrial, and residential sections of several Utah cities. They were designed in 1866 by surveyor D.A. Sanborn to assist fire insurance agents in determining the risk associated with insuring a particular property. The map surveyors meticulously documented the structural evidence of urbanization - building by building, block by block, and community by community. This collection is held by Utah Division of State History and includes volumes not available through the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps digital collection at https://collections.lib.utah.edu/search?facet_setname_s=uum_sfim.
