Rare first edition, first state of Samuel Augustus Mitchell Jr's map of Cincinnati, the first plan of Cincinnati to appear in a commercial atlas. The first state can be distinguished by the presence of plate numbers inside the map frame and a much finer rendering of the decorative border. Maps from S. A. Mitchell Jr’s first printing of his 1860 New General Atlas are not just scarce…they are rare, and hardly ever show up on the map market. (See first part of description of Lot 1). The map features vivid hand coloring by wards, and names streets, buildings, depots, landings, railroads, etc. An excellent example of this exquisite map with extremely light toning at the edges. 10.75 x 11.25
