Africa.
Issued c. 1800-1820, Philadelphia by Tanner..
Map is utterly unique to this era. Fascinating early 19th century cartographic artifact capturing this continent during a period of rapid exploration and expansion of knowledge.
Overall clean and attractive example, splits along fold lines ends nicely closed with archival tape on reverse, small chip to lower right blank margin corner.
Map still displays well and looks great.
Map sheet measures c. 10 3/4" x 13 1/4".
Printed area area c. 9 3/4" x 12 3/8".
