We Gladly Combine Multiple Purchases, based on the Largest Map or Print

Description:  It is an authentic antique copper plate engraved map on strong cotton paper with plate marks in the margin with three vertical folds, uncolored as issued. It is approximately 218 years old from Edward Wells, A Historical Geography of the Old Testament, published in Oxford, Clarendon Press, 1801, a copy of the title page is included for authenticity. It is by Thomas Condor, an English Cartographer and Engraver (1750-1805), as stated in the bottom right margin of the map. Overall, a very well preserved map that would frame up well or could be used for research publication since the copyright has long expired.
