1865 · Philadelphia
by Mitchell, Samuel Augustus Jr
Philadelphia, 1865. Unbound, colored engraved map, decorative boarder, 14"x 11". Slight toning and aging, a few small chips at the edges; overall very bright and clean. Maps are wrapped with acid free board, or in rigid sleeves. The Mitchell family started to produce atlases in 1846, and continued into the early 1890s. Around 1860, S. Augustus Mitchell Jr. took over, and the atlas would be called Mitchell's New General Atlas. This is an extremely attractive map of California from the 1865 installment of that atlas. The city of San Francisco is shown in an inset. Ristow 311-313 (Inventory #: 101010)
