It is a steel plate engraved map with original handcoloring as issued, the most sought after of all the Mitchell Maps. It is from a rare edition of Charles Desilver's New Universal Atlas, published by Desliver in Philadelphia in 1857. The map has a copyright date by Desliver of 1856 in small print in the bottom margin. Desilver's name and address 251 Market St., Philladelphia appears under the title area. The American Cartographer, Charles Desilver, bought the copyrights and plates of Mitchell's atlas of the same name and updated the maps and made some minor changes particularly in the title block, added his own border style, choices of color and published the atlas from 1856 to 1859. The run of the Desilver atlas was more limited in number than the previous Cowperthwait publishing, thus the Desilver maps are the rarest of all the Mitchell maps published and difficult to find. A copy of the title page is included. Size: The map image measures approximately 10 by 12 inches on a 13 3/4 by 17" page. Condition: The map is in Good condition for its age with overall tonal aging and original handcoloring as issued, blank on the reverse, printed on a strong flexible page, not brittle, basically as seen in the pics. There is one minor stain as seen in the pics and some darkening around the edges, otherwise it is very clean with a nice anttique quality that would frame up nicely. The pic is of the actual map you are bidding. Payment Details: We accept most major credit cards through Paypal and Ebay. Please ask if you have any questions about payment.
