Maps this early and showing this much detail are a great piece of history! The map has fantastic coloring to it. There are tears along the left edge from where it was separated from the binding of the Atlas.
Map is generally in Good- condition. Some age related browning and toning and some spotting and stains. The map has some small tears and chips around the edges, but they do not affect the map, as well as some other stains here and there. Some other dings here and there, as well. Creases in the corners and a few folds creases in the map area.
This map would be a great addition to any collection and will look very nice when framed!
Please note that while I have included a picture of the Title Page of the Atlas that this map was taken from, it is NOT included in the sale, as it is a reference piece to determine authenticity for the other maps. I would be happy to include a copy if requested.
