Pub Note:
Reissue from M. Carey's 1818 edition General Atlas. No changes from the 1818 edition. We assume that Robert DeSilver issued this pocket map, because the paper, coloring, and case are so similar to the maps we know he reissued from the Carey plates. The only difference between this pocket map and the DeSilver pocket map of Massachusetts that we have is the absence of any gold stamped title on the case cover. The covers 12x7 are made of red textured paper.
