ANTIQUE 1851 GLOUCESTER & ROCKPORT HF WALLING CAPE ANN MAP -PRE CIVIL WAR MA MAP

Description: : ORIGINAL *MAP OF THE TOWNS OF GLOUCESTER AND ROCKPORT, ESSEX CO, MASSACHUSETTS. HF WALLING, CIVIL ENGINERR, JOHN HANSEN PULISHER 1851* THIS IS A REALLY GREAT ORIGINAL MAP. IN DOING RESEARCH I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND TOO MANY OTHERS OF THESE. THERE ARE FEW IN MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTIONS, AND I FOUND ONE THAT SOLD BACK IN 2007 BUT OTHER THAN THAT, IT IS NOT ANYWHERE THAT I CAN. WALLING MAPS, DEPENDING ON THE TOWN, CAN BE PARTICULARLY SCARCE AND TOUGH TO FIND. THIS ONE SEEMS TO BE ONE OF THE TOUGHEST. 37 X 46 INCHES ON LINEN, THE MAP HAS SOME ISSUES. THERE IS SOME CHIPPING TO ALL THE MARGINS, WITH THE LEFT MARGINS EXTENDING INTO THE IMAGE SHOWING SOME PARTICULAR LOSS. THERER ARE OTHER SMALL AREAS OF LOSS BUT 90+% OF THE MAP IS STILL INTACT. THE IMAGE AND DETAIL IS GOOD AND STRONG. USUAL DUSCOLORATION AND CRACKING ALL THAT COULD EASILY BE FIXED AS PART OF THE RESTORATION. THE RESTORATION TO BRING THIS MAP BACK TO REALLY HIGH QUALITY WOULD PROBABLY RUN BETWEEN $500-$1000. I BELIEVE THAT THE RESTORED MAP, WOULD SELL FOR MORE THAN $5000. DO YOUR RESEARCH ON THIS MAP. SEE IF YOU CAN FIND ANOTHER ONE ANYWHERE. DONT MISS THIS CHANCE. CHECK THE PICTURES ON THIS EXCELLENT PIECE!!! DO YOUR RESEARCH ON THIS PIECE. DONT MISS THIS CHANCE!! SHIPPING AND HANDLING AND INSURANCE CAN BE CALCULATED. ALL ITEMS ARE BEING SOLD AS IS. PICTURES ARE AN EXCELLENT INDICATION OF CONDITION. CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND YOU WILL SEE THAT MY CUSTOMERS ARE HAPPY. I GENERALLY SHIP ONCE A WEEK SO PLEASE BE PATIENT. IT TAKES TIME TO MAKE SURE ALL OF THIS ART AND ANTIQUES ARRIVE SAFELY. PLEASE DONT HESITATE TO EMAIL ANY QUESTIONS. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND HAPPY BIDDING.
