Genuine Antique Printed-Color Map
1863
Maker: Johnson and Ward.
Antique comparative map with early printed color showing principal mountains, rivers and lakes in the world as known in 1863. The source of the Nile was not yet known. The key to the mountains, which are numbered by continent, is on a separate sheet no included with the map, however we can include a print-out of the key on request (although it is unclear which edition our photocopied key is from). Very good antique condition with toning of the paper, some smudges and stains in the margins, and a small separation on the fold at bottom. Measures approx. 16.5 x 25 inches to the neatline.
