Overall Size including text and borders : 11 1/4 x 7 1/2 ins. CONDITION: Single page Map that also has a cropped map on the back. As Scanned.This 1888 antique map depicts "N.W. AFRICA, MOROCCO ALGERIA & TUNIS" as stated in the title. Created by Geo. F. Cram, an engraver and publisher from Chicago, Illinois, the map covers the northwestern part of Africa, including modern-day Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. It shows the Mediterranean Sea (labeled as "MEDITERRANEAN SEA") to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The map is highly detailed, displaying numerous cities, towns, geographical features, and political boundaries of the time. It uses a scale of miles and indicates longitude lines both from Greenwich and Washington. The coloration distinguishes between different regions or political entities, with Morocco appearing in a lighter shade compared to Algeria and Tunisia. The map extends from Cape Spartel and Tangier in the northwest to the Gulf of Gabes in the east, showcasing the Atlas Mountains, the Sahara Desert, and various oases and settlements across the region. The level of detail provided for inland areas suggests a good knowledge of the region's geography at the time, despite parts of it being under colonial control.NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU PURCHASE: This is a GENUINE ANTIQUE VINTAGE 1880s MAP. It is NOT a modern reproduction, ie. a laser scan, photocopy, etc. It is the original from the antique or vintage atlas or book publication. This map was published on the date mentioned, or circa the date mentioned at the top of the page. The map I have for sale, like many antique vintage prints and maps that you see online, originate from an antique vintage book or atlas publication. The publication may not always be known. If you have any questions, emails are welcome. Shipped Unmatted.…
