Condition: Good Vintage condition, commensurate with age. This map is in great shape for being almost 90 years old. Light edge-wear, scuffing, pin holes on margin where the map was removed from the atlas, and toning, but this will all read as vintage character when framed.
(Atlas cover and front matter shown for informational purposes and not included.)
