About the Item
Johnson’s Delaware and Maryland Map, USA c.1864 – Hand-Colored with Insets
This is a finely engraved and hand-colored map titled Johnson’s Delaware and Maryland, published by Johnson and Ward in New York circa 1864. It depicts the states of Delaware and Maryland with counties shaded in pastel pink and green, showing towns, cities, roads, railroads, and rivers in detail.
The map features three architectural vignettes at the top showing the Patent Office, Treasury Building, and General Post Office in Washington, D.C., adding historical and decorative value. There is also an inset map of the District of Columbia in the lower left corner, detailing the city plan of Washington, D.C., with streets, landmarks, and the Potomac River.
Major cities such as Baltimore, Annapolis, Wilmington, and Washington are clearly marked. County boundaries are outlined in red for clarity. The decorative border typical of Johnson maps surrounds the entire engraving with intricate geometric and floral motifs.
Johnson and Ward were leading American atlas publishers during the mid-19th century, known for producing maps combining geographic accuracy with decorative appeal. Their state maps are highly collectible for their historical detail and attractive presentation, making them ideal for Americana collections or interior decor.
