Zell's Descriptive Hand Atlas of the World.

Small folio (13 1/4" x 10"), leather spine and corners with cloth, gilt title on top cover and spine, illustrated with 35 colored maps. Top cover and part of spine partially detached, wear and scuffing to spine and extremities, bookplate on front endpaper, endpapers are partially glued to pastedowns, slight aging and a little corner staining, but internally bright and clean. While Zell's maps don't have the decorative style of other map makers of this period, they are attractive and technically quite good. The double page map of the United States is nicely done.
