Maker: Henry / Corbin
Antique double-sided page with maps of the Departments of Cher and Correze, France, published in the Nouvelle Geographie Et Statistique De La France, Alger Et La Belgique, Suivie D'Un Traite Sur Le Monde Entier... 1842 (5th edition) by Alexandre Corbin. This charming page features text relating to the statistics of the Department, including rivers, mountains, industries, notable residents, and "remarks & curiosities" as well as a small map of the region surrounded by illustrations of the local products and one notable/historical personage (Macdonald in Cher and Brune in Correze). Very good antique condition with some minor stains in the margins. Paper is lightweight and the image/text on verso is slightly visible but this can be reduced by backing with a black backing when framing. Measures approx. 13.5 x 9.5 inches to the neatline.
