An antique map in fine condition means it has not been damaged (except for minor blemishes), it has not been restored in any way or cleaned and the printed impression is ‘fine’. Each of these factors affects the desirability of an antique map and therefore its financial value. And so does the aesthetic enhancement to a map that colouring may provide. So ‘fine’ is not at the top of the scale, although it is better than ‘very good’. Please note that many antique maps were folded by the publisher or had their blank margins reduced to fit them into books. These do not detract from an antique map's value.
