Description: It is an authentic Antique map approximately 150 years old with original handcoloring and a centerfold as issued. It is an SDUK (Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge), which was a very prolific organization that published atlases and books mainly of scientific interest. This particular map is from The Harrow Atlas of Classical Geography, published in London, 1866, originally intended for use in the Harrow School. A facsimile copy of the Atlas title page is included for authenticity. The society name is in the title area and the publishing detail in the bottom center margin and the engraver's name J&C Walker in the bottom right margin. It is not matted, mounted nor framed, being sold as a single large sheet with a centerfold as issued, as shown in the main pic. Overall, a very beautiful map, nicely detailed with strong color on a bright page.
Size: The map image measures approximately 12 1/2 by 15 inches (32x38cm) on a 14 by 17 1/2" (35x44cm) page with a wide margin all around for matting.
Condition: It is in Good condition for its age, blank on reverse with original handcoloring and a centerfold as issued. There are a few light handling smudges around the margins, bumped corners, light edgewear and slight quarter inch splits at the ends of the centerfold, otherwise the map area is very clean with nice color that would frame up well, see the pics for more on condition. The pics are of the actual map. See the detail pics for a better idea of the color.
