Printing Technique: Color Lithography.(The original survey drawing is first engraved on copper plate, that very fine engraving is then transferred to a lithographic stone for large scale printing (engravings on copper can only be used for small print runs given the softness of copper). Condition: Strongly inked with nice color, lightly toned throughout, with a tidemark along the left margin for the length of the map waxing and waning as it progresses from top to bottom; it only just touches the leftmost parenthesis on the upper left corner and recedes from that point on, never to invade the map proper again.
