Pub Note:
Date estimatd. A composite atlas with title page, no index. A strange collection in original binding, indicating it was made up for a customer who seemed to want several maps of the same area, but with different publication dates. Maps are dated from early 1860's to 1873. According to the title page, 1817 was the first edition of Stieler's Atlas; Title page is dated 1867. Some of the multi sheet map sets are incomplete, as in the United States with three sheets of six. Maps are both hand painted and printed in full and outline color.
