This map was published in The Massachusetts Magazine, a very important and scarce American literary periodical that was primarily illustrated by Samuel Hill (as here). Bound sets of the work almost never appear at auction; the last we can find went for sale in 1973. The map follows directly from the Thackara & Vallance publication of March 1792. Baynton-Williams 2; Jolly 437; Phillips, Washington D.C., PW 13; Tooley, Federal City, 2.
