1592026339Frankfurt am Main 1591 1592. Original Antique Map . Single Sheet. Near Fine. Laid Paper. Size: Image And Border Approximately 17 7/8 Inches X 1M.5 Inches 45.2 Cm X 36.75 Cm. Debry Printed His Voyage To Virginia In 1590 As Part I Of His Works But Burden Mapping Of North America Provides No Record That A 1592 Printing Exists. This Map Has No Center Fold But Contemporary Engravings Exist Of The Offices Of The Great 17Th Century Cartographic Publishers With Row Upon Row Of Flat Drawers For Storage Of Single Maps; It Would Be Unreasonable To Believe That None Of These Unbound Maps Survived. This Appears To Be One Of Them Although The Consensus Of Modern Dealers Is That No Unfolded Large Map First Published In A Book Can Exist. Although We Have Been Unable To Locate A 1592 German Edition Of Debry We Believe This Is A Map As Issued In The 1592 German Edition Of De Bry Which Was First Published In 1591 And Subsequently Reprinted In 1592 And 1594 And In The Seventeenth Century. Small Cartouche At Lower Left Monogram With Text "Caesavece Matis. Privilegio Mdxcii" In The Plate Added After Original 1591 Printing. This Is An Unfolded Sheet Which Was Never Bound In A Book; A Strong Impression Without Damage And With Old Light Partial Coloring. Once Quite Aged Then Professionally Cleaned De-Acidified And Mounted Loosely With Archival Materials By A Museum-Experienced Conservator In About 2000. Scarce. And Now 430 Years Later It's Depicting A Hangout For Orangutans. <br/> <br/> unknown

1905105099<p>Four postcards approximately 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" with stamps. Some writing on image side post marked some aging and browning edges slightly bumped; otherwise very good. This collection of four postcards from Cuba are postmarked stamped and written out. The authors are Anna and Nestor although in one card the author is less clear to a Miss K. Greve.
