(North America, United States, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia).
Issued 1883, London by Letts.
Scarce late 19th century color lithographed map. A later re-issue of the SDUK maps originally printed some 40 years prior. A map encountered less frequently than one might anticipate.
Of particular modern interest for the key, which notes unusual features such as consulate locations & light houses, categories not typically found on maps of this era or region.
Well preserved, clean, nice looking example.
Sheet Measures c. 17 1/8" H x 14" W.
