VINTAGE 1972 FRENCH MIDDLE AGES MAP
Printed in Spain - ancient looking old map!
Will look awesome in a nice frame!


The map is in a fairly good condition for its 41 years. It has numerous small water stains which actually makes it look older and more authentic!
At the bottom right hand corner some stupid person stuck a piece of tape and when removed, some of the ink of course came with it. It is not too bad though and really the only actual damage to the map.
The paper is thick, almost a thin cardboard and has slightly yellowed with age.
Most of the text is printed extremely small, but some of it is clear and can be read with a magnifying glass.
Please have a look at the images to verify condition and feel free to ask any questions. Unfortunately due to the high amount of detail, we could not upload larger images.


The map was printed in Spain in 1972, as stated in the bottom left and right hand corners. In the bottom left hand corner of the border is written "publication Maur A Leclerc, Paris".
The map heading reads "carta navigatoria portugaten orbis terremaris terminos....". It appears to be Latin, but Google can't seem to translate it fully. Something along the lines of "marine navigational chart" and "world ends".
So it could be concluded that it is a marine navigational map of the then known world, reproduced in Spain in 1972 from an actual middle ages map originally produced in France.
Please do your own research if the origin etc. is of importance to you. I am no expert and may be missing something.
The actual paper measures 60.5cm x 50.5cm and the map part about 49cm x 41cm, leaving enough space around the borders to have it framed.
