Note:
The non geological version of the Troost map in pocket form. Tanner published this map in two forms: colored geologically to accompany Tanner's publication of Gerard Troost's Geological Survey of the Environs of Philadelphia, 1826, and, (eliminating "designed to illustrate the geological survey made by G. Troost" from the title and the geological coloring), as a map of Philadelphia and the adjacent country. Marcou says the Troost book and map are rare. This pocket map version is not in Phillips and is quite scarce. See Tanner 1829 Memoir catalogue, No. 50 and 51 for a listing of this map in both forms. Covers are a red leather 10.5x6.5 cm. and stamped with "Philadelphia." in gilt.
