Von der von insgesamt 4 Platten gedruckten großen South Carolina/Georgia-Karte De Brahms vorliegend leider nur die nördliche (obere) von 2 Platten gedr. Kartenhälfte, allerdings im 1. Zustand von 1757 ( Cumming bildet unsere Kartenhälfte ab auf plates 59 D und 59 A). Cumming weiter: “Along the North Carolina-South Carolina boundary line “the Nature of the Land in this Course” is shown by different types of shading, offering the nearest approach to a soil map for many years to come. For some reason only the first edition of De Brahm’s map has this feature”. – Voller Plattenabdruck, links u. unten mit kl. Rand um die Plattenkante, oben u. rechts auf der Plattenkante geschnitten. Kräftiger homogener Druck. Die große Karte war mehrfach gefaltet, gelegentlich kl. Läsuren in Faltkreuzen u. Falten. Insgesamt frisch erhalten. – Only the 2 sheets joined of the northern part of De Brahm’s huge South Carolina-Georgia map. Excellent impression. Folded, but in overall fresh condition.
