Sobre este artículo
New York: J. H. Colton, 1855. The image is 15 3/4 inches by 12 3/4 inches on a sheet measuring 17 1/2 inches by 14 3/8 inches. This map is from the 1855 first edition of Colton's Atlas of the World, Illustrating Physical and Political Geography. It was the first atlas published by the Colton family, who had been in the map business since the 1830s. The atlas is considered to be among the most accurate of the time, and it was so successful that new editions continued to be published well into the 1880s. In addition to their accuracy, the maps are distinguished by their clarity, their attention to detail such as railway lines, fine hand-coloring to set counties off from each oyher, and attractive decorative borders. These are among the most sought-after mid-nineteenth century American maps. The map offered here is in very good condition: clean and bright image that is free from foxing; lightly toned paper and minimal edgewear.. First Edition. Single Sheet. Very Good. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. Map.
