Excerpt from Valentine's Manual of the City of New York for 1916-7 The frontispiece is the first of the City Maps for which Mr. Valentine was afterwards to receive so much credit. This map shows the extent of the city at that time (1842) and is now an eagerly sought item for New York collections. These were followed in later numbers by other similar productions showing the constant and rapid growth of the city.
