Original antique print

A very detailed and highly decorative map of the Azores.

There are, in the left half of map, some vertical pleats, which do not disturb the impression very much, because they do not interfere with any of the islands depicted. At the bottom of map, just left of centerfold and in and around border lines, is a small water stain. In lower right margin a few words black ink handwriting.

The overall appearance of map is very good. Vertical centerfold.
