"[Lot of 2] Map of South America, Showing its Political Divisions [and] Map of New Granada Venezuela, and Guiana [on sheet with] Map of Peru, and Ecuador [and] Map of the Argentine Confederation", Mitchell, Samuel Augustus

The first shows the continent with good detail and a large inset of New Granada featuring "The Proposed Atrato-Inter-Oceanic Canal Routes, for Connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans" (the Isthmus of Panama). The second has three detailed maps within the decorative border. New Granada is also named "United States of Columbia". The maps locate Monte Video, Quito, Lima, Truxillo, Bogata and much more. Both are beautifully colored in an original hand and feature decorative grapevine borders.
