Issued 1871, Boston, by Walling & Gray

An attractive original antique lithograph map, with original hand color.

Printed in the 19th century, on paper which has gently age toned as always, but which remains sound, mostly clean & well preserved.

A lovely map worthy of display which is not often seen.

In Good+ to VG or better condition; normal uniform minor age toning to sheet as typical, small tears along the edge of the sheet, and light minor age toning or spotting. Overall the printed image is clean, well preserved and very attractive.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The zoomable image is a major part of the item description. Please examine closely, as what you see is what we will send you. [note: we grade very conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws ]. Text on verso as issued.

A little-known and fascinating antique map which any collector, dealer, institution or person of artistic taste would be happy to own and display.
