A superb example of a large mid-19th century map of India and the western coast of Southeast Asia boasting vibrant original color on five clean sheets. 

The assembled map extends southward from Kabul in the north to just below the southern tip of Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and eastward from the Beluchistan & Beloochistan border of Sindh, across the Ganges plain and all of Bengal to Burma and the Irrawady Delta. The last two sheets, designed to attach to the other four, extend eastward to show Assam and Burma, and have longitude on the northern and southern margin and latitude on the eastern margin.

This map is exceedingly detailed, with interior towns, roads, hills, mountains, rivers, and political boundaries indicated. It is published in six sheets, the first four forming the whole of the subcontinent, with latitude and longitude on the outside margins. A Detailed legend, in lower left lists British Territory, Native States with which Subsidiary Treaties exist, Native States under British Protection but without Subsidiary Treaties (grouped by regional categories), and Independent States.

Condition: This map is in excellent condition with no major tears or holes. Currently available in 5 separate sheets with original color and full margins. Map can be assembled and joined for an additional fee.
