About this Item

Unbound, colored engraved map, 16 "x 13". Slight toning, browning, and aging, some staining or soiling in margins; 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 Peru and Bolivia is from the somewhat scarce 1857 edition of Colton's General Atlas. This map lists J.H. Colton as the publisher. The map also features Lima in a small inset. May require extra postage. Ristow 313-326.
