Note: to see four close-ups of this picture, click on the area you wish to see. "Africa". An almost unbelievably detailed folio sheet early 19th century engraved map of Africa, with countless place names and details not normally encountered on maps of this region. Much more detailed than the photograph reveals. From the very scarce 1821 issue of this scarce elephant folio atlas. A variant of the 1817 map. On an c. 28 1/2 " W x 21 1/2" H sheet, (image size is c. 23 1/4"W x 19 3/4"H). In good + condition, with some light damp staining and a bit of light offsetting, which has a minimal visual impact. Original hand color. Ordering: Please use the Buy Me button below, or phone the shop to order this map.
