The maps were issued folding and now flattened on sheets with a small fleur-de-lis watermark. There is minor soiling and offsetting, and the northeast sheet has printer's ink residue. The southwest sheet has a small piece of masking tape along the left edge of the sheet on verso, which has caused minor staining on recto.
