Item description from seller

Very good. Reinforced at folds, else excellent. Size: Height 22.5 x width 38.75 inches. This is Herman Moll's 1707 / 1726, large-format double-hemisphere map of the world. It is the largest and most visually entertaining English atlas map of the world from the early Colonial period; it captures a view of the world in the midst of a transformation from the state of the art of the 17th century to a more scientifically focused style of cartography. The new mode - predominantly French - dominates the map: ironic, given Moll's adopted English chauvinism. Date: 1709 (dated) Note: Most visually engaging atlas map of the world from the early Colonial period. References: OCLC 909308077. Rumsey 9729.003.
