This map bears the initials of the Klu Klux Klan on the back, a very prominent group in SW Penn Bituminous coal mining and production. How they were involved in this map is a mystery and I cannot find any history on it... whether they funded survey maps or not, I do not know. But there is no other KKK in Penn in Victorian times. In good Victorian antique condition with less than typical wear/staining and foxing...as seen in pics. There are tears, holes in the deep creases as this map has been folded in the back of a book for about 150 years From "Geology of Southwestern Pennsylvania" volume 3, 1878 1st edition. NOT Reproduction despite its excellent preserved condition Approx 24.25 x 28.5" MUST SHIP FOLDED ***Disclaimer on old/vintage/antique books/paper and the like: Some wear from age, use and storage which may or may not include some, none or all of the following: writing/personalized notes on inside covers and title pages(or notes on pages in the case of songbooks and sheet Music), small tears, creasing, etc.... all typical Vintage and antique book wear.
