Description
Less common hand-colored vertical map of Manhattan and Brooklyn with virtually no toning, unusual in the Johnson series of maps. A very nice example with a clean, sharp printing impression. Framed within an elaborate Victorian strapwork border. Parts of Jersey City, Hoboken, Weehawken and present-day Queens included. Governors Island, Ellis Island, Bedloes Island, the U.S. Cob Dock, Ward’s Island, Randel’s Island and Blackwells Island (later renamed Roosevelt Island) are also shown. Manhattan shown from Battery Park to a few blocks above the North side of Central Park at 110th Street. Upper right inset map shows the rest of the island north of Central Park in a smaller scale, with present-day Bronx labeled “Westchester County.” Brooklyn prominent in the main map, shown from Greenpoint to Greenwood Cemetery and from Red Hook to East New York Avenue. Brooklyn separated from Flatbush and New Lots with heavy red outline. Shows parks, squares, streets, boat slips, ferry routes, railroads and “city car” (horse-drawn streetcar) routes. Wards numbered and colored in shades of light and dark pink, yellow, and green. Footprints of major buildings also indicated, and institutional buildings on Blackwell’s Island are labeled, as are major features of Central Park. Some small tears reinforced with archival tape on reverse. This lovely map is clean with no toning. One small piece of tape on face in extreme upper left corner. One-inch split at right and left centerfold just into frame. 16.25 x 22.75
