This complete German world atlas contains 83 double-page maps and an engraved title page (for a total of 84 sheets). The maps are presented with typical German craftsmanship and great attention to detail. Many of the maps include insets. The maps are pasted onto a backstrap, as with older atlases, so the double-page sheets are continuous. A few of the maps are colored lithographs. Complete with title page, list of maps and a 10-page report at the end. Folio, hardbound in original pebble cloth covered boards with quarter leather spine and tips. Gilt titles on front cover and on embossed spine.

Condition: B+

Maps are generally in very good condition with a few damp stains in the blank margins, isolated foxing and a few faint spots. A few of the regional maps have slightly more widespread foxing in the image but still good. Covers are lightly stained and warped, and the edges are bumped.
