Full hand-color with heavier outlining, Mitchell's decorative foliate border. Atlas map from Mitchell's New General Atlas.... Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, 1867. S. Augustus Mitchell.

Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, 1870. Anon. Southern States. Approx. 11.75 x 18.5 in. sheet. Full hand coloring, sailing vessel in Gulf of Mexico, elevations shown by hachures. Although not identified as to publisher or author, this map is very similar to ones by Thomas Smiley (but lacks the insert of South Florida), Sarah S. Cornell, William Woodbridge (his have inserts below title - in Atlantic Ocean area), Huntington, and even Mitchell (more text under title than this one). An earlier retailer has written "1828" in pencil in the upper right corner, but that did not help identify the source. Many of the previously mentioned similar maps are from school geography atlases, as we suspect this one is, also. Most of the above maps also predate 1850, so this map is likely fairly early. the population of St. Augustine (FL) is noted as 1,500, and Savannah (GA) is about 8000, both of which would also suggest an early date.
