About This Item

Stockholm: Carl Af Forsell , 1826. Scarce, extraordinary 8 map set in 4 boxes. The fully hand colored (original). Each map has 12 panel, and several are quite striking. There are 2 maps to a box (sometimes tight). The linen backed maps are generally near fine, but the original boxes (with orignal labels) are chipped, several with marked edgewear and a few external areas rubbed off. The topographical and waterway details are hard to describe. A few copies are listed online via the KVK catalogue. This includes most of Scandinavia, with some focus on Sweden and Norway. This would make quite an item for a scholar or collector of Scandinavian material. Each box measures 9x9 inches. Each of the 8 map images is approximately 24.5x32.5 inches (62x83 cm)..
