Condition: C+

Nice original color and impression. The map has a few worm tracks with some loss in the right border, with an old paper repair. There are some marginal stains that encroach slightly into the map and there is some paper loss coming within 1/8" of the border on the left. There are some tears into the map on the left as well. Still an attractive map that would frame well.

Estimate: $200 - $275
