Genuine Antique Map
1806
Maker: John Cary.
Antique engraved map of North America, with original color. Includes part of Greenland, Iceland, Mexico, Central America, Cuba and the West Indies. This map shows the vast unknown that was the American West before the information from the Lewis and Clark expedition was publicized. Despite the limited knowledge of the time, the detail is excellent with some guesses at the topography, such as the course of the Missouri River. This map is in very good restored condition. It has been cleaned, deacidified, and backed. Measures approx. 18.25 x 20.5 inches to the neatline.
