Description
Huge and highly important folding pocket map to be used in the field during the Civil War. OCLC lists only five locations for the 1864 edition: LC, Yale, Penn State, Library of Virginia and Wake Forest. Americana Exchange records only one auction record in the last 15 years, and only two before that. 32.25 x 43.25. Full original hand coloring on onion-skin paper. This example appears to have been used extensively suggesting that it may have been present during activities in the latter stages of the war. Large paper omission where map had been attached to folder, which is not present. Numerous tape reinforcements to rear. Several edge and junction tears. Although the hand color is vibrant, the map could definitely use a conservators’ attention.
