Original, hand-colored antique map titled "Map of Part of the Southern States."

• The map was drawn and engraved by Sherman & Smith, New York, and published by D.F. Robinson, Hartford, Connecticut, in the atlas to accompany Olney's School Geography, one of the classic geographic works of the early 19th century.



• The coverage area includes Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and northern Florida.



• Details include counties, cities, towns, railroads, Revolutionary War battle sites, and natural features.



• Milledgeville is labeled as the capital of Georgia, a large Mosquito County extends north from southern Florida to the upper end of Lake George, and a vignette of a ship in the offshore waters is captioned "The Savannah, the first steam ship that crossed the Atlantic from Savannah to Liverpool, 1817."



• Among the other named places and features are Pensacola Bay, Okefenokee Swamp, Cape Hatteras, Roanoke Inlet, Georgetown, Memphis, Talladega, Mobile Bay, Apalachicola River, West Point, Tuscaloosa, Nashville, Chapel Hill University, Georgetown, and St. Augustine.



• Condition:  This map is in very good condition, sound and clean, with strong colors, a vertical center fold, as issued, and no rips, tears, or writing. There's faint offsetting on the right side, and the center fold has toned a wee bit. The map is blank on the back, with no printing on the reverse side.
