Printed in 1892, this is a beautiful, 117-year-old color map of the County of Derby in England. It measures about 10 by 13 inches (about 25 by 35 cm.), and is in Fine condition. This map is very detailed, showing topographical features, Parliamentary divisions, cities and villages, castles and abbeys, routes of old railroads and surface roads and much more. Terrain elevations and drainage are indicated using hachures, as was customary in Victorian Era cartography.
This is a guaranteed genuine antique map! Besides being highly decorative, this map is ideal for genealogy and other historical researches. Great, too for educational settings such as classroom or home-school. It is similar to many of the maps shown in expensive mail-order and on-line catalogues, with one important exception: this is an actual antique, NOT a modern copy or reproduction. It was printed on a single sheet of stock, hinged in the center and blank on the reverse, and bound whole in an antique book. There are no marks or stains, the paper is clean and not brittle, and the colors are nice and fresh. Highly suitable for framing. (See sample presentation below.) This item would look great in your office, den, library or study. A great investment, this map is certain to appreciate in value over time. Please ask all questions before making your purchase.
