An Original Antique Map: Not a Reproduction! Description: It is an original antique map approximately 227 years old by Johann Michael Probst from his Atlas Minor ex Tabulis. The map is well documented in the cartouche which states that it is by Ioh. (or Johann) Michael Probst, Augsburg. The printing details are in the bottom margin along with a date of 1795. Size: The entire page measures 7 1/2 by 11 3/4 inches (20x30cm) with the printed area slightly smaller as seen in the main pic. Condition: Good condition for its age, blank on reverse, with original handcoloring as issued. It does have a rich antique patina as seen with some light staining and speckling, otherwise it is a strong impression with bright color printed on a high cotton page, very flexible and not brittle, with the copper plate marks embossed in the margins. Overall, a very nice example with a rich antique qaulity that is rare to find, see the pics and description below. Check out my other items. Be sure to add me to your favorites list.
