Wit, Frederick de 1665 Nova Africa Descriptio This is De Wit`s uncommon map of Africa, first published in 1660 in a set of maps of the four continents, each with decorative native figures at the sides and town views above. These were some of the earliest maps by De Wit, and also the last folio-sized maps with decorative borders to be issued in Amsterdam. This map shows views of Cairo (Alcair), Alexandria, Algiers (Alger), Tunis, Tangiers (Tanger), and Ceuta across the top, which are close copies from Jodocus Hondius` map of Africa from 1623. The figures at both sides of the map are nearly identical to those from Van den Keere`s Africa map of 1614, with the exception of the top two (Congensis and Mulier Abissinea). The geography on the map is based on Jodocus Hondius` Africae nova Tabula from 1623, which was copied from Willem Blaeu`s Africae nova Descriptio from 1617, although De Wit omits the engravings of animals in the interior. The Nile is shown according to Ptolemy with its sources arising in the lakes Zaire and Zaflan, the fictitious Lake Sachaf of Laurent Fries appears, as well as the R. de Spirito Santo. De Wit`s map of Africa was issued separately, as well as in composite Dutch atlases. This is the third state, with the addition of a woman and infant in the right-hand shield of the publisher cartouche at bottom. 21.9"" W x 17.3"" H A fine impression on watermarked paper with a few tiny spots in the Atlantic and a professionally repaired centerfold separation that enters 2"" into map at bottom.
Ortelius, Abraham 1580 Tartariae sive Magni Chami Regni Typus ""This extremely decorative map is important for several reasons and therefore becomes a foundation map for a variety of collection subjects. It is the earliest printed map to focus on the North Pacific and the Stretto di Anian. Ortelius` depiction increased public awareness of Gastaldi`s theory of a strait between the continents of Asia and America. It also includes a very early depiction of Japan, which is shown as a huge group of islands taking up nearly the entire North Pacific and located equal distance from both Asia and America. A notation reveals that Japan, called Zipangri by Marco Polo and also Chryse, was once attacked by the great Khan. It is also one of the earliest (obtainable) maps to depict Northwestern America and to name California (C. Califormio). Six of the mythical Seven Cities of Cibola are located in the present-day Southwestern United States. This information was derived from reports of the ill-fated expedition of Francisco Vasquez de Coronado in 1541. The map was designed to illustrate the expansive Kingdom of the Great Khan in Asia, which according to Ortelius is bounded by the river Ob, Lake Kataia, the Volga, the Caspian Sea, the river Chesel, the mountains of Usson, the area of Tibet, the river Caromora and the Morning Ocean. The map was beautifully engraved by Frans Hogenberg and is filled with decoration including two encampments of Tartars, sailing ships, a flying fish and two elaborate strapwork cartouches. This is the second state with German text on verso, published between 1580-89."" 18.6"" W x 13.8"" H Original color on watermarked paper with light toning and soiling. There is one tiny worm track above the ""R"" in Septentrio, only visible when held to light.
Buchon, Jean Alexandre 1825 Atlas Geographique, Statistique, Historique et Chronologique des Deux Ameriques et des Iles Adjacentes... ""This very attractive atlas is from the French edition of Carey & Lea`s American Atlas. Included are 63 maps and tables of North America, South America, the United States and the West Indies. Each of the maps is surrounded by text including economic, political, social and historical data. Of particular interest are the following maps: Carte Geographique, Statistique et Historique de l`Amerique Septentrionale (14.3 x 14.0""""). The United States extends to the Pacific Ocean and reaches far north into Canada showing the boundary that becomes the Fifty-Four Forty or Fight dispute between England and the U.S. Alaska is Amerique Russe with good detail and place names along the coastal region, but a fully blank interior. Many Indian regions are noted throughout. In Texas (unnamed) only a few places are named; S. Antonio, Rancho, Matagorda, and San Saba. A bizarre mountain range diagonally crosses the Great Basin from Utah and nearly reaches the coast in the direction of San Clemente. The R. del Carmelo ou St. Phelipe, originating in L. Teguanyo ou Salo, freely runs through the Great Basin to its mouth at Monterrey. Etats-Unis d`Amerique (21.0 x 16.8""""). This map is directly derived from John Melish`s seminal map of the United States. The large Arkansas Territory takes in most of present-day Oklahoma; the new state of Missouri has a vertical western border; Michigan Territory includes most of present-day eastern Wisconsin; and the Northwest Territory takes in present day Wisconsin and Minnesota. The balance of the Midwest is included in the Territoire d`Oregon and is filled with information on numerous Indian tribes. The Grand Desert Americain takes in the southern plains region. Texas is a part of Mexico. Carte Geographique, Statistique et Historique du Territoire d`Arkansas (14.2 x 14.1""""). Reflecting Major Stephen H. Long`s exploratory expeditions, this is an important map of the early western territories, focusing on the large Arkansas Territory, and depicting an early western border in Missouri. The map extends to the Rocky Mountains, and the plains are labeled Grand Desert. Numerous Indian villages are shown based on information gained from the Lewis and Clark expedition, and other important exploration routes are shown. The map shows Arkansas Territory extending to include present-day Oklahoma. The western portions of the map are identical to Long`s map of 1823, also published by Carey & Lea. Carte Geographique, Statistique et Historique de Michigan (10.3 x 14.2""""). This fine early map of Michigan Territory depicts a western boundary on a line 10° 30` West Longitude from Washington, resulting in Green Bay and a strip of present-day Wisconsin being incorporated into Michigan. The Frontiere Indienne divides lower Michigan on a diagonal line. The only settlements shown are in the southeast around Detroit, and along the Saginaw River is a Nouveaux Etablissements. The initial counties of Michilimakinak, Monroe, Oakland, DeWayne and Macomb are named but not delineated. There is a road depicted from Ft. Wayne, Indiana to Mt. Clemens. The rest of the territory is virtually blank except the a few portages and Indian villages. Several battlegrounds from the War of 1812 are located by tiny flag symbols. Complete. Large folio, hardbound in marbled paper boards. Text block has deckled edges."" 14.9"" W x 22.2"" H Maps and text are very good to near fine with some occasional light soiling and damp stains in the blank margins. Covers are worn and detached and the spine has perished. Given the quality of its contents, this atlas would benefit from professional rest
