Superb large map of Hispaniola with a sizable inset of Martinique. The nicely detailed map covers the area to include the tip of Cuba and part of the Bahamas. It is decorated by a grand decorative title cartouche and scale of miles.

A crisp impression on a watermarked sheet with some extraneous creasing along the centerfold, some minor spots, and a couple tiny holes only visible when held up to light. There is a short centerfold separation just touching the neatline at bottom that has been closed on verso with archival tape.
