Description
Wonderful antique map of Georgia showing all counties, railroads, major routes, towns, cities, rivers and major waterways. Shows bays, islands, inlets and other coastal features. A table at the bottom of the page lists steamboat routes. From the true first printing of S. Augustus Mitchell’s New Universal Atlas, published in 1846. Shows the Carey & Hart decorative borders not found in subsequent printings of the atlas (the second printing that same year contains a slightly different border than the one shown here). This map represents Mitchell’s initial effort in the atlas publishing business. After purchasing Henry S. Tanner’s atlas publishing business, he apparently used the Tanner maps for his first effort, substituting Tanner’s name for his own and replacing Tanner’s copyright slug with that of H. N. Burrough’s. A lovely and authentic map of the state with a few small and light spots of foxing in the bottom margin and light toning to edges, typical of Mitchell maps of this era. 11.5 x 14
