Untitled, unauthored and undated varnished card wheel 11 3/4" in diameter, printed on both sides with hand colored highlighting, and mounted with a mahogany handle with brass alidades divided 0-90 degrees. Both terrestrial hemispheres are shown, with political, geographic and astronomical features in great detail. The circumference carries numerous definitions and instructions for use and calculation e.g. "To find the Azimuth of ye Sun at any given hour of the Day, To find the Space of Time during which there is no Dark Night, etc." A wonderful, most rare device. |

This map should be compared to the 1855 edition to see how much the cemetery has grown in the intervening 46 years. An index of features and graves of prominent people is added. An ms red "x" marks, we presume, the grave location of someone known to the map's original owner. Folded into blue cloth covers 17x12 with "Green-Wood" and illustration of building in gilt. Oriented with north toward lower left. |
