    Looking at the expanse of the Spanish possessions in mid 18th century, this map includes northern Mexico, and todays Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Many place-names can be recognized in New Mexico but fewer on the Gila and in Texas although LaSalles settlement is shown. Shows the lower Californian peninsula as now understood to be connected to the continent, thanks to Fr. Keno's explorations and map.

    Condition is good with one or two small worming points, now repaired. Attractively hand colored. Image size is approximately 6.5 x 8 (inches)
