World Maps

The great age of maps began in the late 1400's due both to an upsurge in voyages of exploration and to the recent invention of copperplate engraving.  Superb hand printed and colored maps from the 1500-1800's are available in all price ranges.

We have an extensive selection.  Please call us if you are looking for a specific map or country.
