From the venerable Mitchell atlas, one of the most attractive atlases produced in the 19th century -- a visually stunning antique, hand-coloured Prussia and the German States, published in 1867. If you are looking for a special gift, choose hand-colored maps over printed maps. While admiring the map, keep in mind that all the colored lines and filled-in color were painstakingly done by hand.


The map has an intricate vine motif border, typical for Mitchell atlases of that era. Text at the bottom states "Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1866 by S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr. in the Clerks Office of the District Court of the U.S. for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania".

The map is blank en verso and is in very good condition. VERY FRAMEABLE! See the photos, as the item in the photos is the item that you will receive. This is an original map, not a reproduction
