THIS JUST IN: Antique map lovers are going to be thrilled with this new collection of Africa maps we've just acquired. At the top in this photo, Partie Meridionale d'Afrique (1705), created by Nicolas de Fer, in Paris. Next is Nigritarum Regio (1670), created by John Ogilby in London. In front, Carte de Canal de Mosambique ... (1780), created by Rigobert Bonne in Paris. All are handcolored, and printed from copper engravings.
