Colton's Map of Indiana.
- New York:: J.H. Colton & Co.,, 1857.
Unbound, colored engraved map, decorative boarder, 16"x 13". Slight foxing, toning and aging, margins with a little darkening and finger soiling; overall 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 map of Indiana is from the 1857 edition of Colton's General Atlas, even though the copyright date on the map is 1855. The map is colorful with a fair amount of detail on Indiana counties. May require extra postage. Ristow 313-326. # 103212
