Colton's Map of the Argentine Republic, Chili, Uruguay & Paraguay.

Unbound, colored engraved map, 16 " x 13". Some toning and aging, foxing or soiling in margins; still generally 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 is a fairly attractive map of an important portion of South America, including Argentina and Chili, from the rather scarce 1857 edition of Colton's General Atlas. J.H. Colton is named as the publisher on the map. May require extra postage. Ristow 313-326. # 103174
