Note:
This is the pocket map version of our 4417, folded into brown leather covers 16.5x7.5 with "Map U. States" stamped in gilt, with ribbon ties. The map has been trimmed to fit the covers (as issued) so that the copyright date above the neat line and the publishing date below the neat line are not present (probably the same as the Karpinski copy which he dated "1813?"). Outline color by state.
