  • New Illustrated & Historical Copper Plate Map of The World on Mercator's Projection...

    Bechler many times is thought of as a component of Hayden's expeditions that mapped the West, in particular for Colorado and for Wyoming. This rare wall map is a fine example of his previous independent work, and that during the Civil War. Well detailed for the nations of the world and major cities, it also includes some interesting insets from a hemispheric world, polar projection. a chart of longest rivers and highest elevations, a timetable, phases of the moon, and much more. Rare and desirable. (Larger and shipping will be calculated)

    Condition is very good and has been fully restored, cleaned and backed. Image size is approximately 56.25 x 60.5 (inches)
