A nice impression with contemporary outline and wash color on watermarked paper with light toning along the edges of the sheets. The southern sheet has a professionally repaired centerfold separation at bottom and minor creasing at bottom center. The northern sheet has a vertical printer's crease and soiling at far right and left. Please note that the first image is a composite image - the map is on two separate sheets.
