Description

Signed By The Artist -- Ethel G.A. Foster

Scarce commemorative pictorial map of Toronto, celebrating the 100 years anniversary of its founding in 1834. 

The map illustrates the town of York (later Toronto) in its infancy, with the location of homes and buildings, dates of the construction of important local monuments, and other historical vignettes dating back to 1794, when the fort was established by order of King Louis XV of France.

The text also gives a brief history of Toronto, dating back to its naming in 1686.

Rarity

This is the first time we have ever seen the map.
