A look into the "Old World." A great item for the genealogy buff! Old maps can be a great help in tracing your family lineage. Some maps show important borders from a long time ago.
Approximate Overall Size Including Margin: 11 3/4 X 16 1/4 inches
The map is one large sheet with centerfold and binders tape on the centerfold reverse side to keep the map sturdy and intact.
CONDITION: Suitable browning with a beautiful patina, appreciated from age. Some mild creases at the bottom area, otherwise in Very Good Condition. Map image is crisp, clean, clear with excellent detail and in Very Good Condition. Numbered map plate print is blank on reverse side and printed on heavier nicely coated paper. Folded on the center with binders tape at the reverse side to reinforce the fold. This beautiful print would look great matted and framed. An art supply store can provide you with a selection of frames for old art treasures. If the map looks uneven it's because I had to scan in 2 parts and match the images together. The map is definitely on one sheet with a fold down the center.
