County Map of the State of New York

Philadelphia, 1861. Unbound, colored engraved map, decorative boarder, 22 1/2"x 14 1/2".

The Mitchell family started to produce atlases in 1846, and continued into the early 1890s. Around 1860, S. Augustus Mitchell Jr. took over, and the atlas would be called Mitchell's New General Atlas. This is an very attractive and colorful double page map of New York State from the 1861 installment.
