Beautifully Executed, Large Ink and Watercolor Manuscript Map of North America, 1854, French Canadian heavy small mirror Definitely a very singular catI look at a lot of antique hand drawn maps done in school, but rarely come across one as beautiful as this one, finely executed ink and watercolor and dated 1854.
