1st edition map of the South Pole, or Antarctica by Colton

Item Details

Description

Excellent 1855 first edition example of J. H. Coltonâ€™s map of the South Pole, Antarctica or Southern Polar Regions. The map gives an excellent overview of the state of Antarctic exploration and discovery to 1855. At this time there was little knowledge about this forbidding region, so that part of the map is drawn accordingly. However, Colton notes the travels of a number of important Antarctic explorers, including Wilkes (1840), Bellinghausen (1820), Ross (1840-43), Klempt (1833), Cook (1773-74) and Biscoe (1831). A very clean example with just some light edge toning. 12.75 x 15.75
