Anversa, 1580 circa. Dal "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" incisione in rame all'acquaforte, coloritura d'epoca, cm 35,5 x 49 (alla lastra) più margini, semplice cartiglio in riquadro, in basso al centro, stemma araldico della Frisia occidentale in alto a sinistra, una elaborata rosa dei venti nella parte superiore al centro del foglio, velieri nel mare germanico a sud. Prima edizione con testo latino al verso (al verso il numero della pagina è il 19). Incisa da Jacob van Deventer verso il 1550, la carta include le province olandesi di Friesland, Groningen e Drente e quella tedesca di Friesland. L’Olanda è descritta in maniera molto dettagliata e comprende anche le più piccole cittadine, le città fortificate, i fiumi e i laghi (molti dei quali bonificati nel corso del diciassettesimo secolo e quindi scomparsi). Il "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" fu il primo atlante moderno, comprendente carte di tutte le zone del mondo: in esso si riunì, in un unico corpus, l'eterogenea produzione cartografica del periodo, e con esso vennero poste le premesse per una impresa editoriale di enorme successo, durata dal 1570 al 1612. L' intuizione di Ortelio fu infatti quella di notare che prima di allora la produzione cartografica era irregolare e solo a livello locale, i pochi atlanti prodotti, i cosiddetti "Atlanti Lafreriani", erano costituiti su richiesta e in tal modo raccoglievano carte di alcune zone ma ne ignoravano altre. Bell'esemplare in splendida coloritura coeva, in ampi margini e in ottimo stato di conservazione.

Grande carta nautica di Livorno, realizzata dal matematico e tenente di marina Tommaso Young; la carta è dedicata a Pietro Leopoldo, Arciduca d’Austria. Livorno, rappresentata in pianta, è collegata con Pisa attraverso il canale dei Navicelli, e al Lazzereto di S. Jacopo, oggi Accademia Navale, attraverso il canale dei Lazzaretti. La rada antistante riporta i principali valori di scandaglio. P. Frati, che considera l’opera molto rara, ne descrive un esemplare pubblicato da Francesco Natali in via Genovese. Un po’ di gualciture della carta e una lieve accentuazione della brachetta centrale, peraltro buona impressione. Molto rara. (Bibliografia, Piero Frati, “Livorno nelle antiche stampe”, p. 90)..
Second edition, corrected and enlarged, [8], 242, [8], 40pp., additional engraved title in Latin with allegorical border, laid-down with two closed tears to fore-edge, title lightly stained with a couple of marginal chips, some general age-toning, engravings and woodcuts in the text including one full page, orig. calf, rebacked, joints rubbed, head of spine chipped. Joseph Moxon (1627?1691) established himself as a printer and globe and instrument maker in London. After visiting Amsterdam to study printing, Moxon brought back W. J. Blaeu's handbook of globes, then just published, and translated it into English as "A tutor to astronomy and geography" in 1659. The work was superseded when Moxon published a totally new handbook in 1659, "A tutor to astronomie and geographie". This work was specially designed for an English market rather than Dutch, and became Moxon's most popular work relating to globes. This second edition is corrected and greatly enlarged. A variant second edition which is not listed in Wing, it varies from Wing M3023 in having a separate pagination for the 40-page "Antiquity, Progress, and Augmentation of Astronomie."; ESTC finds 3 copies located at Cambridge, Wellcome and Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original color map. Folded. Oblong folio. (35 x 52 cm). In Ottoman script. Color lithograph. A very detailed and attractive Ottoman map of America. Scale: 1:12.000.000. Otherwise a very good copy. Slightly chipped extremities. Dated Hegira: 1311 = [Gregorian 1895]. Ali Seref Pasa or Hafiz Ali Esref. He was a soldier, who was schooled in Paris as a cartographer around 1862. Already in Paris he published his first atlas with 22 maps, called 'Yeni atlas'. Upon his return to Istanbul he became a chief cartographer at the Maatbaa-i amire Printing Press in Beyazit, which was the successor of the Muteferrika press from 1727. Among others he translated the large Kiepert map of Anatolia to Ottoman. He died in 1907, leaving his large project of a gigantic map of Anatolia in 100 sheets unfinished. Ali's name is often misunderstood or even listed as two different people: Ali Seref Pasa and Hafiz Ali Esref. Until the surname law adopted on June 21, 1934, Turks did not have surnames. They were born with one first name and were until the adulthood described only as sons or daughters of their parent's names. Later they were given titles such as Effendi (Sir), Bey (Chief) or Hanim (Madam) for higher classes, or they were given names according to their work or class. The names were not inherited by children until 1934, when the surname law was enforced. The map maker Ali received names Seref, the honourable, and Pasa, the dignitary. He was also known as Hafiz, the memorizer of Qur'an and Esref, Proud. So Ali Seref Pasa would have a meaning 'Honourable Dignitary Ali, and Hafiz Ali Esref, Memorizer of Qur'an, Proud Ali. Daruttibaa - Matbaa-I Amire Printing Press: The first press in the Muslim world, called Daruttibaa, was founded in Istanbul by Ibrahim Muteferrika in 1727, with a permission of Sultan Ahmeet III. It was located in Muteferrika's house. The first book was published in 1729 and until 1742 sixteen other works followed. After Muteferrika's death, the press was supressed for printing, as printed books were considered dangerous. In 1796 the press was purchased by the government and moved to Uskudar in Istanbul, and in 1831 finally to Beyazit, where it was renamed to Matbaa-i Amire in 1866. The press was closed in 1901 and was reopened in 1908 under the name 'Âmire' In 1927 the name changed to State Printing House. The press still exists and is known for publishing school and educational books. Extremely rare. Not in OCLC.; Not in TBMM Map Collection.
