The map shows the entire continent and it is nicely hand coloured with the printed area measuring approximately 405mm x 330mm with good sized margins beyond, blank verso. There is a centrefold as published. Condition report: Excellent condition, good quality paper, light age toning as is appropriate to a map of this age. One or two small, faint age spots.
