Pictorial Wall Map of the United States c. 1853
DESCRIPTIONThis massive lithograph makes a huge statement in any room. Made in 1853 by the well-known cartographer J.M. Atwood, this huge map of the United States is stunning on multiple levels and shows how the states stood at the time – those of Texas, the East coast, and Midwest are familiar, followed by large chunks of land not yet divided into the states of the West we know today.
Surrounded on all four sides by impressively detailed illustrations, this bold & beautiful map rolls up like a banner for easy shipping, but already has the hooks on the back for quick hanging.
DETAILS & MEASUREMENTSMeasures 28" x 39.5"
In good condition with some wear from age
Covered in detailed illustrations
Lithograph from engraving by J.M. Atwood, New York
Professionally conserved and lined with new linen and with original rollers
