[MAP] Johnson's Africa (c. 1861)

[MAP] Johnson's Africa. New York: Johnson and Browning, c. 1861. [10398] Large double-plate hand-colored map, 46 x 67.5 cm (18 x 26 3/4 inches), clean, suitable for framing. There is a repair in the margin at the left edge of the fold on the front of the map. This is 1 x 2 inches in size and can be seen as it covers the border; some of it will be covered by the mat when you have it framed. This area is shown in one of the close-up photos. There are some reinforced areas on the back side of the fold and margins, not noticeable from the front. Priced to reflect the repairs. Will ship folded at center, as found. Removed from a bound volume, Johnson's New Illustrated Family Atlas. Good. This map shows roads, railroads, rivers, counties, sea & explorer routes, and locales. The countries and districts are hand-painted in colors. There are inset illustrations of the Cape Town and Table Mount, Port Natal, and of the Island of St. Helena. Many central areas of this continent remain complete
