S. Senate executive document #42; ex libris with very light circular stamp on title page and back of map. The map is in very good condition, though it does have several minor faults. It has not been repaired or taped, and is not at all brittle. The paper is not a thick stock, and considerate care is required when handling to maintain the current condition. There is minor foxing, mainly to the top edge, and to much of the panel exposed to an adjacent text leaf; one tear at a fold, and another tiny perforation at another nearby fold (no loss at either tear); slight mis-folding creases at the left edge of a panel or two due to a trimming error of the binder--the paper simply wasn't folded properly as originally cut; small line of staining along a bottom fold for several inches, but it is not a dark stain. Disbound: removed from bound volume, with stitching attached and functional.
