Dripps, Matthew
Note
Entered in 1853. Not in Haskell, although Haskell lists another map of about the same size, insets, and scale, with a different title. The map covers all of Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn and the New Jersey shore. Topography is shown (similar to the Viele map of 1868) with particular emphasis on the original shoreline and the made land and docks. Central Park is indicated by color with no name given. A very attractive map of the city showing the rapid development northward. Full color. Covers are dark brown cloth 22x13.5 stamped in gold with "Bulkhead & Pier Lines, Brooklyn & New York." Scarce. Relief shown by hachures. Depth shown by isolines and soundings.
