Watch List notes:

Dutch copperplate-engraved map of the Caribbean and surrounding land entitled "Insvlae Americanae in Oceano Septentrionale, cum Terris adiacentibus," by Valk and Schenk (Amsterdam, 1694), after a map by Jan Jansson (1588-1664), hand-colored. 25" x 17" (image size 20" x 14-1/2"). With Cuba in center and the surrounding areas including all the way up to the Chesapeake and south to Colombia, this highly detailed map shows rivers and coastal locations as well as names of countries, islands and seas, with cartouche at top right flanked by cherubs and with turtle hanging from middle, lightly colored in pink and brown and yellow, excellent condition with no tears and just the original central fold and holes at very right and left sides of margins where this piece was stitched into its original atlas, minor foxing only.

Estimate: $1000 - 1500
