A detailed map which is not often seen.

In Good or better condition; normal uniform minor age toning to sheet as typical, light edge wear, and light scattered staining, spotting or foxing. Sheet shows signs of handling but is not offensive or unsightly, etc. Overall the printed map area is well preserved and attractive.
