Charte von den Englischen Niederlassungen in Neu-Süd-Wallis

Weimar, im Verlage des Landes Industrie Comptoirs, 1802 [but 1803].

An engraved map (printed surface 174 × 221 mm, sheet size 211 × 260 mm, here with ample margins).

Two vertical creases; some light tanning, with a few tiny spots of foxing; evidence of previous mounting at the edge of the left-hand margin; in excellent condition.

A rare German map of the early settlements of New South Wales, including Sydney, Paramatta [sic] and Bankstown, published in 'Allgemeine Geographische Ephemeriden', Volume 11, in 1803. It is largely copied from a map in David Collins' 'An Account of the English Colony in New South Wales' (1798-1802), itself based on John Hunter's 'Chart of the Coast between Botany Bay and Broken Bay surveyed in 1788 and 89 ...' (1793).
