Description: 1861 Johnson Map of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, Canada WE SELL ONLY ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MAPS - NOT REPRODUCTIONS Title: Johnsonâ€šÃ„Ã´s New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Prince Edward Id. Description: A beautiful 1861 example of Johnson's map of Canada's Maritime Provinces, including New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and Prince Edward Island. Like most of Johnson's maps, this map was derived from an earlier map by J. H. Colton issued in 1855. The map covers all of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Prince Edward, along with a portion of adjacent Quebec. Canadian provinces and territories were under British and French control from the 16th century, until France gave up its claims in the Treaty of Paris in 1763. Canada would remain a collection of British colonies until its confederation in 1867, when the British colonies of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia would become Canadian provinces along with Ontario and Quebec. Although known as the 'Birthplace of Confederation,' Prince Edward Island would only join the confederation in 1873. This map also identifies various forts, rivers, mountain passes, fords, and an assortment of additional topographical details. Map is hand colored in pink, green, yellow and blue pastels to define state and territorial boundaries. Features the strapwork style border common to Johnson's atlas work from 1860 to 1863. Published by A. J. Johnson and Browning as plate number 19 in the 1861 edition of Johnson's New Illustrated Family Atlas. This is the last edition of the Johnson Atlas to bear the 'Johnson and Browning' imprint. Subsequent editions reflect Ward's 1862 acquisition Ross C. Browning's shares in the firm.
