Unbound, colored engraved map, 16"x 13". Slight darkening, and aging, some creasing in lower margins, extends just past border, corner fold, slight crease in right margin, repaired tear in bottom margin; still fairly 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 Persia and Arabia is from the somewhat scarce 1866 edition of Colton's General Atlas. In addition to Persia and Arabia, the map also features Afghanistan and Beloochistan. Ristow 313-326.
