Here's an early view of New Zealand and Australia back in 1892. This gorgeous original hand-colored engraved map from the very end of the 19th century shows all of the cities, towns, highways, rivers, ports, mountains, islands, harbors, and lots of other cool geographic details of New Zealand in fussy fine detail. '1892 New Zealand, Australia' measures 7.5" x 10.5" overall and it's 6" x 9" without the border. It's in wonderful condition, with sound edges and corners with just a whisper of light tanning around the very edges. What a fantastic treasure this would be presented as a meaningful gift to someone truly special somebody from the land down under in your life! Matted, framed, and displayed as a gallery grouping, these fascinating antique maps are simply spectacular. (Please note that the framed examples in the last photos are to show how this might look when it's matted and framed. Your antique map will come to you unmatted and unframed.) Surrender Dorothy.
