Fine and uncommon old color lithographed map. With a profusion of details, hundreds of small locations identified.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The photos are a major part of the item description. Please examine them closely, as what you see is what we will send you.

[note: we grade conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws.].

The map remains well preserved. Some light age wear or surface spotting/ soiling as well as some light old damp staining, which are visible within the photos.

Paper and image remains overall clean & sound. Old maps & prints often display small minor repairs on the back, could have uneven blank margins, might have extraneous fold-lines or other small minor age flaws which do not detract from the visual appeal or value.
