#134338Cary's "A New Map of the Circle of Austria, from the Latest Authorities" has slight toning, a few handwritten notes in margins, visible centerfold, minor nicks/tears to peripheries, and one piece of tape on verso. Otherwise, the imagery, text, and hand coloring are very strong. "Upper Saxony Partly belonging to Prussia" shows slight toning, a faint handwritten note on lower right margin, a visible centerfold, 2 inch separation to lower end of centerfold, and nicks/tears/losses to peripheries. Otherwise, imagery, text, and hand coloring are very strong. "Colton's Holland and Belgium" is laid to the matte.
