Rare antique map: LOWMAN & HANFORD'S MAP OF PUGET SOUND and GRAY'S HARBOR COUNTRY, copyright 1891 by C. H. Amarine - a large folding map, printed on thin, almost tissue-like paper, folded up inside stiff cloth covers; measures 36x27.5 inches when unfolded. In 1891, L&H had just moved to a new building after losing their first to the Great Seattle Fire; the new building wasn't completed until 1892; this may explain why this map appears to be so rare, being produced during this p...eriod of reconstruction. I can't find any others to compare this to, either currently available for sale, or listed on completed-auction websites. ... PLEASE NOTE - I've had several offers on this already, after less than a day, but I won't accept any (though appreciated); nor have I changed the price or added a reserve. Don't miss out!
Condition is VG+ (map is still pretty nice, with minor spotting, tanning, some tiny pinholes at some of the fold intersections and a few tiny tears at edges, minor wrinkles; cover has concave warp and some spotting).
