Plan of the City of Philadelphia and Camden
1882 · Philadelphia
by Mitchell, Samuel Augustus Jr
Philadelphia: Bradley, 1882. Unbound, colored engraved map, decorative boarder, 22 1/2"x 14 1/2". Slight toning and aging; overall bright and clear and in very good shape. 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 a fairly colorful double page map of the city of Philadelphia from the 1882 installment. The Camden portion of the map is to the side, and almost set up as an inset. Ristow 311-313 Phillips 907 (Inventory #: 101073)
