Maine

(New England)

Issued Boston, 1831 by S.G. Goodrich.

Engraved by G. Boynton.

Charming and rare little early 19th century antique miniature map. Engraved with original outline hand color. Very few examples were issued or survive with original hand color.

Identifies the population of the state at the time as 399,462 (above title).

Captures this region of the United States at a fascinating point in its history.

Map displays pronounced moderate old dampstaining down the center. Offered thus and priced accordingly due to the utter scarcity when found at all with original hand color -- most examples were issued uncolored and any survivors are worthy of ownership on some level.

Sheet measures c. 6 1/2\" x 5\"

Engraved area measures c. 5 3/4\" x 4 1/4\".
