Simultaneous with the production of folio atlases and geographies was the emergence of a "pocket" genre, often produced by the same cartographers or publishers. This product was both portable and relatively inexpensive in comparison to the size and price of a full-sized atlas. This leather pocket directory was for the entire country at the time.

Includes a folder to keep notes. Leather is warped, has a one inch tear, is cracking and fading. Pencil drawing on the front blank pages. Some pages are dog-eared and ripped. Staining throughout. No map.194 pages with additional 41 pages of information. [rarity: ii]
