Rare Map from the Nurenburg Chronicle
c. 1493 Map of Europe, Very Good.
From Schedel's Nurenburg Chronicle, published in 1493. 14.5" x 21", scattered wear and soiling, paper loss on the right side that was repaired long ago with a strip of paper on the back. A neat map of northern Europe, certainly not to scale or proportion, showing much of France, Germany, Scandinavia, England, Poland, Hungaria, and the westernmost part of Russia. Some topographical notations, all names in Latin. Attached to the back is an old block of text written in German Fraktur. Rare -- the first we've seen or handled.
