Condition: C+

Issued folding on thin, banknote-style paper and now flat with numerous edge tears mostly along the right side that have been professionally repaired on verso. There is light toning, minor foxing, and a small portion of the right border drawn in facsimile. Given the fragile nature of the paper, the map is usually found in this condition.
