Colton's Map of Russia

New York: G.W. & C.B. Colton & Co., 1866. Unbound, colored engraved map, decorative boarder, 16"x 13". Slight toning and aging; overall bright and clean and in very good condition. Maps are wrapped with acid free board, or in rigid sleeves. Beginning with J. H. Colton (1800-1893), the Colton family published atlases for over 30 years. Colton's Atlas of the World was first published in 1855 in a large two volume set. In 1857 it became Colton's General Atlas, and Colton's sons, George Woolworth and Charles B. would take over the business. This map of Russia is from the 1866 edition of Colton's General Atlas. The map is colorful with lots of detail, and includes a little bit of Turkey in the lower portion of the map. May require extra postage.  Ristow 313-326
