Attractive and desirable map of Virginia eight years before West Virginia broke off and became its own state. These pre-West Virginia maps of Virginia are fascinating and are sought after by collectors. “A New Map of the State of Virginia Exhibiting its Internal Improvements, Roads Distances &C. by J. H. Young.” This is the 1850 Cowperthwait edition from his 1855 New Universal Atlas (dated 1855 under title). A highly detailed map, it shows roads, rivers, railroads, towns, bays, lakes, forts, distances, etc. Features original hand-coloring by counties. Shows inset of District of Columbia and a table of “Principal Rail Road & Stage Routes Through Virginia.” Topography is also depicted, making this a wonderfully complete representation of the state just a few years before the Civil War. Some staining in bottom and lower side margins, none of which will show when matted (a tiny bit of staining will show in the extreme lower right frame). One small repaired edge tear. 12.5 x 15.75
