Note:
1st edition with the text printed on 78 separate pages. Many map changes from the 1835 edition - "Texas" is labeled for the first time, Wisconsin Territory appears, the town of Westport is now the western end of the road in Missouri, along with many towns and roads added generally in the western parts of the map (these are actually the first changes in the map since the first edition in 1832). Map has been backed on heavy paper and is unfolded - originally it was folded behind the text. Outline color. Covers are black leather 13.5x8 with "Mitchell's Travellers Guide Through The United States" stamped in gilt.
