Description: Long Island Sound New York 1841 Blunt coastal nautical map hand colored Chart of Long Island Sound. (Old Maps, 19th Century Maps, Americana, United States, New York, Manhattan, Long Island, Long Island Sound, Block Island, Brooklyn). Issued 1841, New York by Edmund & George W. Blunt. Engraved by Hooker. Mid 19th century engraved coastal map with attractive hand color. New York city at lower left, Rhode Island state at far right above Block Island at right middle edge. Fine looking example with a pleasing age patina, paper wrinkle and creasing (including diagonal crease at right side as seen), the right vertical fold line down the map has some loss and has been expertly backed with paper casting. Small loss at top left corner with neat line nicely re-instated. Map displays well visually. Any small age flaws and condition issues easy to overlook or forgive given the date and inherently fragile oblong folding format. Original fold lines as issued. Sheet Measures c. 8 1/4" H x 17 1/4" W. Engraved Area Measures c. 6" H x 17" W. Cartographic Reference(s): Tooley's Dictionary of Mapmakers, vol. 1. [R35391].
