Plan of Portendic Called Also Portu d'Addi or Penia

(Senegal, West Africa)

Issued 1745, London

Fine original antique engraved map.

Printed in the mid-18th century on quality hand made paper as issued which retains its inherent structural flexibility and soundness.

In Good+ to about VG or better condition, normal minor light age toning to sheet, some slight wrinkling, offsetting and/or mostly quite minor foxing, overall the image is very clean and attractive, given its age-- please inspect visual scan closely [note: we grade very conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws].

The printed area remains visually pleasing, a nice impression of an interesting and somewhat uncommon image.

Any minor defects along the sheet edges and in the margins may be seen in the photos.
