The maps are mostly very good to near fine with some occasional light toning and soiling. The world map has a 2" edge tear at left. The folding map of New York has some loss along the top left border and a split at the central fold junction (B). A former owner's signature is on one of the front free endpapers. Rebacked with original covers, which are rubbed and stained.
