These are the two northern sheets of a large, 4-sheet Scottish-produced map of the continent. These two northern sheets extend south to show nearly all of Turkey and the Caspian Sea, and about half of Japan (to Tokyo), and northern China. The map is filled with rivers, place names, and topography. The title is on the upper left sheet, but each sheet stands alone with full borders. Size given is for each map, which if joined would be 34.5 x 15".

Light toning and offsetting with minor soiling and archivally repaired centerfold separations almost entirely confined to the blank margins (only passing the neatline at top on the left-hand sheet). Please note that the first image is a composite image - the map is in two separate sheets.
