Item Details

Description

A rare and beautiful example of J. H. Colton map of New York City and vicinity, including Manhattan as well as parts of Brooklyn, Jersey City, Hoboken, and Queens. This is the first edition, first state, of the Colton New York City atlas map in which Olmstead's Central Park is completely absent. This important map would become the template from which Johnson and later S. A. Mitchell Jr. would build their own New York City maps. Beautiful hand color. Wonderful attention to detail includes individual streets and even important buildings and parks. Originally prepared as plates no 17 and 18 in J. H. Colton's 1856 single volume issue of the Atlas of the World. An extraordinary example of this classic map. 15.75 x 25.75
