(Large Linen-Backed Map): "Johnson's" Street Index Map of Boston, Including Cambridge and Somerville. 1883 de Johnson, Thomas R. (Engraved & Printed By Geo. H. Walker & Co.) - 1883

Boston: Thomas R. Johnson with W.W. Kellet & Co. (179 Summer St.), 1883. This is a large (49 x 41 inch), uncommon, folding, linen-backed plan of Boston and environs (incl. Cambridge and Somerville), with all street names, major landmarks, in original color folding into the original 10 x 8 inch boards (scuffed, sunned, spine chipped, text loose). The text is all present, and is a full index of all the streets and places on the map. The map is slightly browned, with a few point separations of the linen at the folds (not affecting the map), but overall the map itself is VG-. There are no major stains, no image loss. The title on the map itself is slightly different: "Johnson's" Section Map & Street Index of the City of Boston, Mass..". .
