Sweden & Norway (Scandinavia).

(Europe, Scandinavia, Sweden, Norway, Stockholm, Oslo, Christiana, Bergen, Trondheim, Stavanger, Bornholm, Gotland).

Issued 1865, Edinburgh & London by Wm. Blackwood for K. Johnston.

Fine oversize mid 19th century engraved map with original outline hand color. A nice large map of the era.

From an uncommon atlas, a monumental folio production which was quite expensive in its day and hence had a relatively small circulation compared to smaller format atlases.

Well preserved, clean, nice looking example with pleasing age patina.

Original center fold as issued. Printed on heavy thick paper, in a tube over 8 ounces, thus international shipping will be more than typical as seen in listing details. 

Sheet Measures c. 19 1/2" x 24".

Engraved Area Measures c. 17 1/4" x 22 1/2" .
