A 1776 second-issue example of Ratzer’s Plan of the City of New York… made $120,000 (£86,020) at Doyle.
A copy of Ratzer’s Plan of the City of New York… offered as part of a Doyle (26/21/15% buyer’s premium) sale of April 29 left much to be desired.
However, such is its rarity that the defective and discoloured condition of some of the 16 sections into which it is divided could not prevent it from doubling the high estimate at $120,000 (£86,020).
