Description
Here's an early view of Switzerland from back in 1892. This gorgeous hand-colored engraved map from the very end of the 19th century shows all of the cities, towns, highways, rivers, ports, mountains, islands, & harbors, & lots of other cool geographic details of Switzerland in fussy fine detail. '1892 Switzerland' measures 15" x 10.5" overall & it's 13" x 10.5" without the border. It's in wonderful condition, with sound edges & corners with just a whisper of light tanning around the very edges. There's a clean crease down the center where it was folded as it was issued 130+ years ago. What a fantastic treasure this would be presented as a meaningful gift to a special Swiss person in your life. Matted, framed, & displayed as a gallery grouping, these fascinating antique maps are simply spectacular.
