Additional Details

William Hooker's folding maps of New York are an important part of any dedicated collection of Manhattan maps; they were issued in a number of editions from the 1820s-40s and thus chart the early development of the city during some of its most formative years. Cf. Haskell, Manhattan Maps, 717 ("Additions to 1829").
