Folio (23¼" X 15", image area 18" X 14¼"). Hand colored. Very good. Faint age toning only. Really lovely and bright example of this well-colored world map, from the 1864 edition of "Mitchell's New General Atlas, Containing Maps of the Various Countries of the World, Plans of Cities, Etc." Interesting to see Alaska identified as "Russian Territ'y," but America's Alaskan purchase was a few years in the future! The decorative border is bold and clean. A centerfold image, thus bears single vertical fold (as issued). Seller Inventory # 45487
