The maps are numbered from 1 to 129; the atlas is complete, with all its maps and plans, although the map of Alaska, described in the index as double (maps 17 and 18) is depicted in one map (nº 18), and there is no nº 17. Outer margin of front cover discoloured, damp staining and some restored insect damage in the margen of the last few leaves (see photos; three show the 2 damaged plates), otherwise a good copy of this magnificent atlas. Western hemisphere (11) backs onto half of the world (10); Northern regions (13) back onto the Eastern hemisphere (12); Oswego, Buffalo, Rochester, Albany, etc. are on the NY state map (double page, 35 and 36), (but included on the same map, not on the back); Philadelphia (40) backs onto the second plate of the New Jersey map (39); Savannah and Charleston (48) back on to South Carolina (47); New Orleans and Louisville (54) back onto Louisiana (53); Michigan (53) backs onto Lake Superior (54); Wisconsin (69) backs onto half of Minnesota (70); Indian Territory (74) backs onto half of Nebraska (75); the other half of Nabraska (76) backs onto Dakota and Wyoming (77). Otherwise all the maps are blank or have text on the back.
Hand coloured maps of U.S. States, plans of the major U.S. cities, and the countries of the world.
Rebound, conserving the gold-stamped cloth of the front cover, and the original leather spine, laid down.
