Issued 1881 Gotha by Justus Perthes for Stieler. Map by Petermann.
Very detailed 19th century engraved map with original outline hand color.
Stieler maps went through continual revisions. Thus, for any specific Stieler map such as this one, there are often numerous variant issues with varying details.
Nice looking example, blank margins with some old finger soiling from handling, still a pleasing age patina, any minor age flaws easy to overlook or forgive.
Original center fold as issued.
Sheet Measures c. 13 3/4" H x 17" W.
