Note which appeared on photocopy of the map held in NMC, now discarded.
This double hemisphere map of the world is delightfully decorated in the fine tradition of 17 century Dutch cartography. A double red-ruled border surrounds the map. The map apparently appeared in Van Loon's 1661 edition of: Klaer-Lichtende Noort-Ster. As well as appearing in later editions of this atlas, the map is also found in Moses Pitt's: The English Atlas.
