Hello,

My girlfriend and I recently acquired this 1921 map from her grandmother's
estate. Can anyone help put a value on it? I have only found 1 other place
online that had sold such a map. I have posted photos of it here.

I hope that I've done the photobucket right, let me know if there are
problems

Thanks,

Rick

That blue tag on the back. Does that say "Picture Copy"?
It's kind of blurry.

Where do you get the date 1921 from?

In the absence of other information, it appears you have
a 1921 "picture copy" of an old map (ie, a repro).

Others here may disagree; I see no value in it.

I've also been talking to a dealer in Nantucket, she believes that it is a
hand colored original print. I got the date from the front of the map.

You're saying it's a hand-colored original print from 1921?

How about taking a clear image of that date and other
information regard it.

Yes, that is what I believe it to be. Will get better image up soon.
