Description

Scarce letter sheet style map and birdseye view, issued by Charles Magnus at the beginning of the Civil War. Magnus is well regarded for his large format birdseye views of major American Cities and for his letter sheets, which were essentially stationary with printed maps on the upper or lower half of the sheet. Because of the paper quality and the separately issued nature of the work, they are now quite scarce. Only two examples have been listed in dealer catalogues in the past 20 years. Repaired tear in the DC Birdseye View, else a nice example.
