A propos de cet article

ASSACHUSETTS - BRISTOL COUNTY - 1871. ----TITLE: Bristol County. ----BACKGROUND: Bristol County was created by the Plymouth Colony on June 2, 1685, but through the years areas were annexed or carved out to create the configuration shown.

Bristol County is in original wash color; the remainder of the map is uncolored. From Walling & Gray, Official Topographical Atlas of Massachusetts (Boston: Stedman, Brown & Lyon, 1871).

Description de la boutique

Luke A Vavra was a map and book dealer using the trade name “Cartographic Arts” for about 25 years until illness forced him to give up the business a few years ago. He and his late wife Patricia had a web site and participated in Map Fairs and Book Fairs from Boston to Miami and west to Denver. In 2023 Luke re-established this business under the name Luke A Vavra Rare Maps and Books. The firm does not have a brick-and-mortar store but would not mind scheduled visitors.
