Smith. It was published as part of The Century Atlas, done in 1899. We believe the maps that were part of this publishing effort far outdo other maps in this time period. We don’t normally highly recommend ‘printed color’ maps such as these, however, a view of these maps will prove to you that they are unique in style, presentation and detail. They are visually pleasing and finely engraved. We have framed a number of these maps for customers and they look exceptional.
