This listing is for a folded traveler's map, sometimes known as a "pocket" map. It is entitled Kentucky Tennessee, with the publisher identified as J. H. Colton Co., No 172 William St., New York, and the date of 1856.We have been unable to find examples of this exact map in the U. S. Library of Congress or other antiquarian map collections on-line. The only Kentucky Tennessee map by Colton we identified from this time period is from a two-volume atlas.Joseph Hutchins Colton (July 5, 1800 July 2...9, 1893) founded an American map-making company that was an international leader in the map publishing industry between 1831 and 1890.Traveling maps of this era were printed on banknote paper, using engraved steel plates. The maps had decorative borders and were hand-colored. The listed map contains multiple colors to identify counties, boundaries, and other features.The item listed here is in extremely good condition, with the exception of some paper loss at edges of endpapers on the cover, fabric damage to the interior hinge, foxing and smudging, random creasing other than the intended folds, and small areas of separation at corners.Unlike most pocket maps, this item seems to have been seldom used. It does not have the expected damage from insertion and removal from pockets, bags, and saddlebags, nor does it seem to have been unfolded very many times. The creases are crisp.Closed, the map booklet's size is 5" x 3.5", approximately 38" thick. Folded open, the map itself is approximately 16.75" x 13.5".The exterior covers are embossed and appear to be a combination of leather and fabric. The covers have very little wear, primarily at the top and bottom of the spine, and the gilt letters on the front are clear. The map remains tightly glued into the covers.This map has the added feature of the seller's tag adhered inside the front cover: Rayl Vanuxem, Knoxville, Tennessee.The map's recent provenance is from the personal collection of a well-known East Tennessee historian, who acquired the map from the estate of a deceased East Tennessee attorney. The map was stored with his practice files for decades. Two individuals' names, both difficult to decipher, are written on the item. One is in pencil inside the back cover on the endpaper. The other is on a corner of the back of the map itself. The handwriting of both names is contemporary for mid-to-late 19th Century.The item was authenticated by an expert antiquarian map appraiser.Please look carefully at the photos. eBay limits sellers to 12 photos per listing, but we can provide additional images upon request.

An essentially unused TWO-INCH WIDTH TOOTHING CUTTING IRON by W. Butcher, Sheffield, England. This specialized plane iron is milled with a series of vertical grooves to produce a toothed surface for roughing up a wooden surface in preparation for the application of glued veneer. This old hardware stock toothing iron is in superb condition and could be put directly to use in an appropriate size plane or if you are making your own plane. Length 7.75 Inches (Ref. Id No.: 346512) FreeShippingBR ...
19th Century W Butcher Sheffield England 3 Arm Plow Wood Plane with 1 cutter. The only marking on this plane is W Butcher Sheffield on the cutter. It's possible that Butcher only made the cutter and someone else handmade the plane, but I am not certain either way . The plane has some dark, scorched type marks on about a third of it. I don't know if this was the fact that it was exposed to some type of fire or heat or whether it is intentional to temper the plane as such. In any case, the black a...reas do not have any weakness and are not a problem to the planes working or operation. Condition is Used. It has some light gouges and scrapes on the wood in a few spots. The brass also has heavy tarnish and residue . It is approximately 10 X 12 X 7 inches. It is outfitted exactly as shown and what is photographed is what you will receive . Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
22 Wooden Jointer Plane With 2 38 W. Butcher Iron Condition is good. Shows the kind of wear youd expect from a century old wooden plane. The wood appears to be something other than the traditional beech. My guess is Mahogany but I cant be sure. The Iron is from W. Butcher of Sheffield who at the time was known for fine steel edge tools from razors to chisels, planes, axes etc.. The plane body itself shows no markings so its origin is anybodys guess. Its a nice piece. Message me with any question...s.Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
