A terrific pocket map printed on bank note paper that is filled with information. The map extends further than many maps of Philadelphia, east to show Snow Hill and Riverside, and west to include Chester and King of Prussia. Map folds into original cloth covers. The cover includes original paper label on inside front cover advertising other cartographic material by J.L. Smith, Successor to R.L. Barnes, No. 27 South Sixth Street, Phila. The fine engraving, beautiful coloring and Victorian-style titling make this a handsome map.
