14 x 11 3/4 inches. Condition: Very Good. Multiple states on one sheet. North Carolina and SouthCarolina are oriented in one direction with Florida rotated 90 degrees. Beautiful outline color presents the states vividly. south Carolina has an inset map of Charleston Harbor. This was designed for inclusion in Mitchell's General Atlas. The use of three maps on one sheet probably has to do with the potential sale of the atlas being small in those states on this map. Post Civil War reconstruction would have found the general populace short on discretionary income. Seller Inventory # 317

13 3/8 x 10 1/8 inches. Condition: Very good. Mitchell presented Florida in the context of settlement geography and consequently the inset of Mobile was included. This is a lithograph printed in black and white and hand colored at the time of publication. Because of the maritime surveys the coastal areas of Florida were able to be shown with a good degree of accuracy. Adjacent states of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana have been included in their lower extremities. The inset of Mobile occupies the Gulf of Mexico. Seller Inventory # 291

The Mitchell Company was one of the first to experiment with steel plate engraving techniques, doing so nearly 20 years before the rest of the publishing industry. Mitchell was printing with steel in the early 1830's, though the industry at large did not switch to steel until about 1850. During the early years of the company, Mitchell published mainly maps and travel guides. In 1860, he started producing "Mitchell's New General Atlas", and Mitchell Sr. retired and turned the business over to his son of the same name. "The New General Atlas" was published until 1893. Today Mitchell maps are sought after for their fine engraving, bright coloring, and attention to detail. They are some of the finest maps produced in the 1860's. This map, produced in 1864, shows Mitchell's famous floral border, which is only seen in the early editions of his atlases. This map shows Michigan and Wisconsin and details railroads, proposed railroads, cities, towns, rivers, mountains, Native American tribes, wagon trails, forts and counties. This map measures 11.5 by 11 1/2 x 14 inches. Seller Inventory # 66287
