Item description from seller

Very good. Minor wear along original fold lines, especially near center. Professionally flattened and backed with archival tissue. Text on verso. Size 13 x 21 Inches. This is an 1894 George H. Walker and Company city map or plan of Boston, Massachusetts. The map depicts the central part of the city from the intersection of Columbus Avenue and Dartmouth Street to East Boston and from Charlestown to the Point Channel. Highly detailed, myriad streets, buildings, wharves, and other locations are noted throughout the city. Subway, surface, and elevated mass transit lines are illustrated using red overprinting, as are two locations of S.S. Pierce Company Grocers and the Macullar, Parker Company Clothiers store. Boston Common is situated slightly to the left of center, shaded green, with the public garden illustrated just across Charles Street. City wards are identified and numbered. This map was created and published by George H. Walker and Company in 1894 and presented by the Hotel Essex. References: OCLC 46397908.
