Pub Note:
Early 1864 edition. Switches the map that includes California and the southwest from the one that derives from the Colton/Johnson wall map to a newly drawn map. At the same time, Colton uses the Johnson 1863 map of the same area for the first time in his atlas; they must have had an agreement to switch maps. Full color. Atlas is bound in half leather dark green embossed cloth covered boards with "Johnson's New Illustrated Family Atlas Of The World With Descriptions." and a large U.S. seal with a bald eagle reading "United States Seal. E. Pluribus Unum." stamped in gold; the same design and title is blind stamped on the back cover. The spine reads "Johnson's Family Atlas. 1864."
