Item description from seller

Map is in very clean attractive condition. map was removed from a disbound Gazetteer of the World published in 1856 by Fullarton. Would frame well. The map itself is 23 cm x 14 cm withn the border, and sheet is 17 cm x 26 cm. Steel engraving, very fine work, with three lithographic colours: black outline, light blue, light brown. Looks to have been cleaned at some point. Would display beautifully. Has an interesting sectional view at the bottom showing the comparitive elevations of the principal mountains and places of Java, serving as an index to the letters in the map.
