A framed 1844 Mitchell map of New England

A hand colored copy of S. Augustus Mitchell's Map of the New England or Eastern States, published in 1844, showing also parts of New York, New Brunswick and "Canada East", as Lower Canada was known from 1841 to 1849. (It is modern-day southern Quebec.) Inset maps of Boston & Providence, and New Haven & Hartford appear at lower right. Charmingly, tiny images of steamships and packets and even the Pilgrim ship Mayflower appear in the ocean. Beautifully framed and in good condition.
