Description
Summary:Bound in quarter leather tan marbled paper covered boards with a paste down label printed with the title. Outline color. Tableau Comparatif (mountains & rivers plate) after Bulla. A very sophisticated college atlas; the table has no engraver listed but is clearly derived from or by Bulla, the author of the first table in this format published in 1826 (see Wolter article)(and see Garner's chart of 1823, our #4608). The Map of Amerique Septentrionale is by N. Lorrain. Tooley (Australia & Antarctica) lists the Oceanie map by Monin. None found; cf Wolter p. 195.
