Fair: Printed on three sheets unjoined. The image shown is a digital composite of how the map would look when joined. For an additional fee, we can arrange to have the sheets joined and laid down on to linen; given the fragile condition of the map, we recommend this approach if you intend to frame it. We will contact the buyer prior to shipping to discuss this. There is wear and partial splits at junctures and along folds. The map is printed on paper which has become brittle with age, as is usual with US Coast Survey maps of this era. The map is fragile and at risk of tears, splits along the fold and flaking, even with careful handling. There is toning along the folds. By the time you receive the map, its condition may have deteriorated compared to that shown. Please note any other blemishes on the scan prior to purchasing this picture. Please contact us if you would like to arrange to view this map. This is a folding map. There is nothing printed on the reverse side, which is plain
