[Finley, Anthony, Tanner, T.R.]
Note
Probably published by T.R. Tanner. Unusual "piano" border. This is Finley's Maine updated to 1843 (dated is estimated by the Portland to Portsmouth Railroad which first shows on Maine maps in 1843) and surrounded by an extra piano border and with the number 34 in an oval in the border. In R. Fitch's Catalogue 48 a similar map is listed, #4 - Alabama, also a Finley map but with a floral border added and with a number, 49, in an oval in the border in the same style as the Maine map. The mystery is who published these maps, were they in atlases (based on the numbers in the borders), and were they in atlases published in different years (the different borders might indicate that). Our guess is that T.R. Tanner published these maps in New York around 1843-5. We know that Tanner senior republished some of Finley's wall maps (see our Africa) and he may have acquired the rights to the atlas maps as well. Also, the signature of the owner of the Maine map appears on a Map of New Hampshire and Vermont published by T.R. Tanner c. 1843 (they were acquired together) indicating they may have been purchased at Tanner's shop in NYC. To further the mystery, Fitch catalogue 35, #234, is a map of Wisconsin with a different piano border but the same size as the Maine and Alabama mentioned, which Karrow 6-1664 identifies as from Tanner's General Atlas of 1845. We find no listing for this atlas. Only a mention in T.R. Tanner's catalogue of 1845 (in the Travellers' Hand Book For New York & Canada) that he is publishing the Universal Atlas of 1845 - perhaps he put out an edition to compete with Carey and Hart's edition of the Universal Atlas, but decided to change the title to General Atlas for obvious reasons. This may be the source of these mysterious maps. This map is folded into stamped dark blue cloth covers 11x7.5 with "Maine" stamped in gilt. Stamped into the corners of the border on the covers is "Colton & Jenkins" and "Binders N.York". Full color. Prime meridians are

Two maps from Finley's General Atlas, both double page, within one brown leather cover 12.5x7.5 with "New York. & Pennsylvania." in gilt.

These pocket map editions are very early, with less detail on railroads and canals. The date of 1829 is estimated from an owner's signature and a stamp on the front cover. Finley's ad is pasted under the Pennsylvania map. Full color. Prime meridians are Washington D.C. and Greenwich.
