Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Excellent. Measurement represents map only. Sheet, as pictured, is 15.5 x 12.25 in. Size 11.5 x 9.625 Inches. This is an 1862 Samuel Augustus Mitchell, Jr. map of Boston, Massachusetts. Mitchell's Boston is one of the more attractive atlas maps of the city to appear in the mid 19th century. A Closer Look The map depicts Boston along with parts of East Cambridge, Charlestown, East Boston, and South Boston. Parks, individual streets, trains, piers, ferries, and important buildings are all illustrated and labeled. An inset in the lower right depicts Boston Harbor and the greater Boston area. The whole is surrounded by the attractive floral border common to Mitchell atlases between 1860 and 1865. Mitchell's Changes to the Plan of Boston Between 1860 and 1863, Mitchell's map of Boston went through several changes. In the 1860 edition, the Back Bay was still illustrated as a bay between Boston and Cambridge. Mitchell created a new edition of this map for the 1861 atlas reflecting the Back Bay land reclamation project, begun in 1859. Mitchell also reworked the border art for this new edition. Between 1862 and 1865, the only changes were to page numbers. The map is page 17 in the 1861 edition, 18 in the 1862 edition, and 20 in 1863 and 1864. In 1865, Mitchell changed the borders again. Publication History This map was prepared by S. A. Mitchell Jr. for inclusion in the 1862 edition of Mitchell's New General Atlas . Like many American map publishers of this period, Mitchell did not regularly update his copyrights, consequently this map is dated and copyrighted to 1860: 'Entered according to Act of Congress in the Year 1860 by S. Augustus Mitchell Jr. in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the U.S. for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.' The 1862 edition of Mitchell's New General Atlas is well represented in institutional collections. References: Rumsey 0565.011. Phillips (Atlases) 831-16.…
