SOLD A New Map of the World
SOLD
Code: 76340
SOLD
Date: 1711.
Condition: B.
Colour: Original.
Size: 175x280 mm with wide margins.
Published in London. An engraved folding double-hemispheric world by a famous cartographer. California is an island and the east coast of New Holland is unexplored. The map has an inset of the North Pole.
The map is hand-colored in outline and has moderate even toning overall with a tear in bottom margin extending just to the platemark (which can be easily closed). There is a small split at the top and bottom centerfold that does not reach the plate area. A good example of Moll's elegant style.
