hand-colored on both sides
GRAY'S NEW MAP OF UTAH [ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO]. By Frank A. Gray. No place or date of publication, but ca. 1880.
postpaid, $100
One
leaf taken from an atlas (paged 153-4), 17 X 14 inches.
The map of Utah measures 14 X 11 inches + margins. On
the back is a double map of Arizona and New Mexico.
Nicely hand-colored (I believe at the time of publication) in attractive pastels. Some edges are creased, and a short tear in one margin has been repaired with tape. Once matted, however, these faults will scarcely be visible, and this will make a handsome display. Too large to scan, the paper is a more uniform, pleasing cream color than suggested by the two full views shown here, taken with my camera.
