Colton's Map of New Hampshire
1866 · New York
by Colton, G.W. & C.B
New York: G.W. & C.B. Colton & Co., 1866. Unbound, colored engraved map, decorative boarder, 16"x 13". Slight toning and 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 New Hampshire is probably from the 1866 edition of Colton's General Atlas; even though the copyright date on the map indicates 1855. An attractive and balanced map with good county detail of the state. May require extra postage. Ristow 313-326 (Inventory #: 101128)
