Young and then by absorbing the mapmaking firms of Anthony Finley (1784-1836) and Henry S. Tanner (1786-1858). Like his competitor Alvin Johnson, Mitchell was quick to adopt the technological innovation of lithography in his printing and established himself as the foremost American map publisher of his day. In 1860, he was succeeded by his son, Samuel Augustus Mitchell, Jr. (1826-1882). At its height, the Mitchells’ company may have had as many as 250 employees and sold over 400,000 publications annually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Antiquarium Antique Maps | Quality Custom Picture Framing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43590227951755,"sku":"308426","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0389\/6416\/6795\/files\/ANT.9MitchellMaine_1881.jpg?v=1750367729","url":"https:\/\/theantiquarium.com\/products\/county-map-of-the-state-of-maine-mitchell-1881","provider":"The Antiquarium Antique Maps | Quality Custom Picture Framing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
