This scarce "balloon view" extends from the North Shore to Salem and Boston, and folds into soft covers (4.2 x 6.5") that carry the same title. It is augmented by six inset views including a large Isles of Shoals (Maine/New Hampshire). Numerous railroads are depicted in the region and tiny ships fill the Massachusetts Bay in the foreground. Drawn by F.K. Rogers. Imprint below neatline "Copyright 1879, by J.H. Daniels, Boston" with his address given on the cover as 223 Washington Street. Blank verso. A scarce issue with only a couple examples located in institutions.
