$90.00

Antique Map. Refraction of Atmosphere, Movements of the Celestial Sphere, Parallax, Phases of the Moon, Phases of Inferior Planets and Saturns Rings.

This map was engraved and printed by W. & A. K. Johnston of Edinburgh and London, for their World Atlas, published circa 1886. This popular atlas was reissued a number of times over the following years. These maps are in original published condition which was partly printed in colour.

Please note on the verso there is another map of  The Solar System with Planets Motions and Satellites around Planets – of Uranus, Neptune, Jupiter, Saturn, and the minor planets, around the Sun. (This side has a couple of very faint smudges) Due to system limitations we have shown the reverse side separately – next item. Obviously, one price covers both maps.

The page size is 365 x 480cm (approx. 14.5 x 19 inches). Very interesting maps, that look stunning when framed
