A nice impression with original color, refreshed in a few spots where repairs have been made, and light soiling primarily near the borders. There are professional repairs to a centerfold separation that enters 2.5" into map at bottom and small chips in top corners with a small amount of border in facsimile. Remargined at left with a portion of neatline in facsimile as well.
