Note:
Late edition of this map, first published in 1866. A companion map also issued in 1866 was titled "Colton's New Township Map of The Western Counties Of Pennsylvania." Both are very large scale detailed maps of the state, although taken together they, strangely, omit the central part of the state. Full color by township, folded into black cloth covers 15.5x10 with "Colton's New Township Map of the Eastern Counties Of Pennsylvania G.W. & C.B. Colton & Co" in gilt. Prime meridians are Greenwich and Washington D.C. Relief shown by hachures.
