Map of the State of Pennsylvania
There are few maps that are such a visual wonder as the work of McConnell. His map of Colorado is a rare trophy, and little is known of any other such work that had been done, save for a few things related to the Midwest, then came along this example of Pennsylvania. We find no evidence of it being offered for sale through the usual references and price records, but here it is. It is large, colorful and invites inspection. One almost immediately imagines the compounded hours of work that would have to be invested to produce such an work. Every road, small town, the subleties of the topography all handled in a four color chromolithographic process. It is amazing. Condition is very good for this large canvas backed map, but it does have some light chipping arounde a few of the folds.
