Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Good. Original linen backing stable. Overall toning. Some surface abrasion and edge wear. Some dampstaining. Custom clamshell box. Size 57 x 72 Inches. An attractive 1859 first edition example of Richard Clark and Robert and George Tackabury's important wall map of Connecticut. Drawn on a scale of 1.5 miles to the inch, this is the largest and most complete map of Connecticut to appear in the 19th century. A Closer Look The map covers Connecticut with detail including topography by hachure, color coding by county and township, notes on railroad lines, rivers, and roads, and countless depth soundings. It identifies 'the location of all public buildings, churches, school-houses, manufacturing establishments, and private residences'. Nine insets focus on the cities of Norwalk, New London, Bridgeport, Hartford, Norwich, Middleton, Waterbury, Norwich, Waterbury, Stamford and New Haven, where Yale College is identified. To the left of the map proper are 1850 census population statistics for both counties and cities arrayed in a table. Sources Cartographically this map is an amalgam of older maps and new private survey work ordered by G. M Hopkins and Company of Philadelphia. The countless depth soundings along the Long Island Sound are drawn from the U.S. Coast Survey. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by Robert M. and George N. Tackabury based upon surveys performed by G. M. Hopkins. It was published by Clark and Tackabury, and printed in Philadelphia by Thomas S. Wagner Lithography. It was sold by subscription in both wall and case format from March 2, 1859. The first edition of this map is scarce - especially as here in dissected format. We note examples of this edition at 4 institutions: Yale University Library, the Connecticut Historical Society, the University of Connecticut, and the Boston Athenaeum. Scarce to the market.
