Manchuria and Korea
Satisfaction Guaranteed
This is an authentic 1906 map--NOT a recent reproduction
.
This modest-sized color map of
Manchuria and Korea
is
dated 1906 on the face.
It was engraved and printed by the
Matthews-Northrup Company of Buffalo, NY
.,
to accompany a set of reference material published between 1905 and 1911
.
Major Cities, Underground Telegraph Lines, Rivers, Bodies of Water, and other Topographical elements are located on this map.
Railroads are shown in red
.
The map is printed on medium-weight paper,
blank on the reverse
. The full sheet size is 9.75" x 6 7/8", and
the printed portion is about 8.5" x 5.25"
with blank margins of between 1/2" to 1" all the way around to allow convenient matting.
This is a very attractive older map
and would look beautiful matted and framed. If you want an authentic map showing the region as it was over 110 years ago, this is a good one.
The copyright date of
"COPYRIGHT, 1906, by Dodd, Mead & Co."
appears on the face of this map, just below the border in the lower-right corner.
A Note on Lithography:
One of the delightful and interesting results of the engraving and ink transfer process in lithography is that there can be variants of the maps which look slightly different when compared side-by-side, even though they were produced by the same engraved plates on the same press. This may be a result of additional passes by one color or another, subtle differences in the ink tone, varying pressure from the pressing of the plates, slight variation in the position of each color plate, or other choices made by the engravers or the printers.
The result is that each map's appearance is truly unique.
The images below give a
fairly accurate representation of this map
.

cropped without its full margins.

One or more of the following copyright statements
appear on the face of this map (see description above for the precise date).
