  • Condition: Complete issue of 16 pages. The paper was made with rag content at the time so the paper is very sturdy and durable. The issue was previously bound keeping the pages within clean and safe for over 150 years. The illustrations are all in good to very good condition. There is a hole on the front page in the lower right hand corner about the size of a small lima bean (please see photo). The centerfold is tipped in so there is no damage to the center crease due to binding. The maps are in very good condition with only a small amount of foxing on the page. There is some light staining and foxing throughout the issue (again, please see photos!). The issue is stored in a clear, acid-free plastic sleeve with one end open.
