1857. · New York:
by Colton, J.H
Unbound, colored engraved map, 16"x 13". Slight darkening, aging; overall bright and clean and in very good condition. Maps are wrapped with acid free board, or in rigid sleeves. Beginning with J. H. Colton (1800-1893), the Colton family published atlases for over 30 years. Colton's Atlas of the World was first published in 1855 in a large two volume set. In 1857 it became Colton's General Atlas, and Colton's sons, George Woolworth and Charles B. would take over the business. This map of Sweden and Norway is from the 1857 edition of Colton's General Atlas. The map offers good detail on each country, and the coloring and impression is very attractive. Ristow 313-326.
