OHIO [folding pocket map].

Finley, Anthony

Philadelphia, PA: Anthony Finley, 1830. Reissue. Hardcover. Miniature. Very good- condition. Item #6173bg

3-1/2" (height) x 2-1/8" (wide) original tan leather binding with gilt lettering "OHIO" on front cover, and decorative blind-tooled border. Contains an 11" x 8-1/2" hand-colored fold-out map with loss of one section at lower right corner (1" x 2-1/2") resulting in loss of cartouche, but not affecting image. A few tears at folds. The pastedown publisher's advertisement affixed to the inside front cover lists the date of 1830, but since the cartouche is lacking, it is unknown if this is the 1829 issue of the map, or an unrecorded 1830 issue. Americana; Michigan - Ohio border dispute.
