Justus Perthes. Atlas General Compose de Trente Sept Cartes Coloriees et Gravees sur Cuivre.

The maps are double-page with blank versos, done in typical Perthes fashion with attractive coloring, and numerous precise geographical details. As of 1895 most map publishers, including Perthes, were still making their maps to look like the hand colored maps of previous decades. By the beginning of the 20th. century atlases like this one begin to take on a more modern look. *** Bound in 19th. century style black cloth boards with red cloth spine and corners to simulate a 1/2 leather binding. The covers have light soil, a little faint spotting, some moderate chipping of cloth at spine ends and corners. The contents are clean and complete in a good binding. The maps are in excellent condition. *** 10 inches tall by 7 inches. Bookseller Inventory #
