Note:
Not listed by Haskell, but similar to 1005, on the same scale. Probably one of Dripps' first New York City pocket maps. Haskell lists none that are before 1854, only Dripps' larger wall maps of the city, the first of which was published in 1851. Also similar to Haskell 1010 of 1855 - same scale (1 inch = 1800 feet) and size but with the title changed to "Map of the Cities of New York, Brooklyn & Jersey City". All three of these maps are from the same mother map. Map is folded into black stamped cloth covers 13x9 with "Dripps' Map Of New York." in gilt.
