Charming miniature map of Asia that has a very unusual depiction of the northeastern extremity of Asia extending off the map. While most of Duval's maps are based on the cartography of Sanson, this feature does not resemble any of Sanson's maps and appears to have originated with Duval.

Condition: A

Faint fold toning and an old fold repair in bottom blank margin.

Estimate: $160 - $200

Sold for: $130
