The World.

(Old Maps, 19th Century Maps, World Maps, Eastern Hemisphere, Western Hemisphere, North America, South America, Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania).

Issued 1824, Boston by Cummings and Hilliard.

Uncommon early 19th century antique American engraved map with original outline hand color.

Map displays well visually despite the old (paper) cello tape down the centerfold as seen- some light overall dustiness, small spotting or surface soiling, short edge splits, still a well preserved, nice looking example. The various age flaws seen in the pics give the map a nice look of age patina not seen on newer maps.

Original center fold as issued. Priced to reflect condition.

Sheet Measures c. 12" H x 19" W.

Engraved Area Measures c. 9" H x 16 1/4" W.
