Original in Special Collections (State House Trust Collection) MSA SC 1096. Color transparency of image exists, but image quality is not ideal for large-scale color reproductions. Image uploaded to ecpclio created for On Demand Prints reproduction of the map in response to a patron request for a map--repquest came in at last minute. Sasha Lourie and Greg Lepore found the existing transparency to be unsuitable for making a reproduction, and took 4 digital photographs of the map and stitched it together for printing. Digital photography enabled subtle details to be visible. See MSA SC 5458-64-49. The original map needs to be photographed in pieces and stitched together for creation of a higher resolution image.
