Pub Note:
In 1832 a 63 map edition was advertised to be issued in 6 parts. See P6039 for further details. This 1834 issue appears to be the same as the 1832 issue with 63 maps. The Stieler Hand Atlas was often issued with different numbers of maps, tailored to fit the customer's specific needs. With hand painted full and outline color. Sheets are not bound, they have been removed from original damaged binding for conservation. All maps have additional page numbers in the upper right corner saying Neue Ausgabe No... with the prior edition number under it.
