Johnson maps of this late date are typically scarcer than earlier versions. Interesting variant issue of this large detailed state map.
Nice looking example, pleasing age patina, light damp staining along edges that extends into the top left portion of the map, any minor age flaws easy to overlook or forgive.
Original center fold as issued.
