This large, scarce map generously describes the continent of Asia. It is most remarkable for its detail in the Philippines, Ladrones, and Indonesia. Japan is dwarfed by the huge Land of Yedso (Hokkaido) above it, with a note: It is not known whether the country of Yedso be join'd to Japan or not. The coastline of the Land of Compagnia is placed nearby. South of the Kingdom of Lassa or Boutan, the fictitious Chamay Lake is named. The map is dedicated to Sr. George Markham, Baronet in the upper right, and the title cartouche is surrounded with classical figures. Printed on two joined sheets, as issued.

Some toning, light damp stains and an extraneous crease near center. There are some short tears, repaired with tissue on verso. Paper replaced in the lower corners, with a bit of the neatline at left replaced in facsimile. Even with these flaws, it is an impressive map.
