A handsome map that includes all of the U.S. to an enlarged Arkansas Territory. Wisconsin and Minnesota are together called the Northwest Territory with the Western Territory to the west. The area of Texas is called "Spanish Province of Texas." Short split along centerline fold, also closed with tape.

Lovely, crisp impression with fine, bright original full hand coloring. Some offsetting or foxing. Map has been torn nearly in half with a lot of tape on verso to close. The paper is sound and the tear is clean so a professional repair is in order.
