This is a hugeBlack
and
White
COPY (
No Color
) of an original
1862 (undated) Map of
PENNSYLVANIA, VIRGINIA, DELAWARE, and MARYLAND
by A.J. Johnson
This map offers a fascinating snapshot of the north-south borderlands shortly following the outbreak of the American Civil War.
Map shows all four states in full . This is the last edition of this Johnson map to feature an undivided Virginia.
Engraved decorative views depicting the “University of Virginia,” “Richmond,” and “Fortress Monroe” decorate the upper left,
lower left and lower right hand quadrants, respectively.
Features the strapwork style border common to Johnson’s atlas work from 1860 to 1863.
Published by A. J. Johnson and Ward
as plate numbers 32 and 33 in the
1862
edition of Johnson’s New Illustrated Family Atlas .
This is the first edition of the Johnson’s Atlas to bear the Johnson & Ward imprint.
CHECK OUT THE ODD SHAPE OF VIRGINIA BEFORE WEST VIRGINIA SPLIT OFF THE VERY NEXT YEAR !!
This map is HUGE ---- 45 inches by 31 inches!!!
The city and county names in the title block do not necessarily mean they are shown on the map.
I will mail out in a large mailing tube.
Again, this is a
Black & White COPY
of the huge map,
NOT THE ORIGINAL
. I have the original and it is not for sale.
Would make a great gift !!
Thanks for looking!
