J.B. Elwe. Atlas

Amsterdam, J.B. Elwe, (1792), contemp. handcol. engr. title, 22 letterpress p., planisphere, double-p. star-map, 35 double-p. maps and 2 double-p. tables (exactly following the binder's index), all finely contemp. handcol., modern rotan binding, folio.

Moulded/ dam. in upper inner corner almost throughout (restored), resulting in some loss of image/ titles and stains in inner margin in most of the plates/ maps; inner margins strengthened; a few maps frayed in lower margin; worldmap w. closed tear; vaguely waterst. in fore-edge margin throughout. A complete copy, for the composition of the atlas, see illustration.
