Description:
Unbound, colored engraved map, lined boarder, 23"x 15". Some toning, darkening and aging, a couple of small margin tears, three with archival tape repairs, slight corner crease; overall a nice impression, about very good. Maps are wrapped with acid free board, or in rigid sleeves. The Mitchell family started to produce atlases in 1846, and continued into the early 1890s. Around 1860, S. Augustus Mitchell Jr. took over, and the atlas would be called Mitchell's New General Atlas. This is a fairly colorful double page map of the city of Philadelphia from the 1872 installment. W.H. Gamble is credited for this map. Unlike previous Mitchell maps, this one does not have the traditional decorative boarder. The Camden portion of the map is to the side, and almost set up as an inset. Ristow 311-313. Phillips 907.
