John Speed:  Asia

	(Click Image To Enlarge)

Title: Asia

Map Maker: John Speed

Description:

Nice full color example of Speed's rare scarce miniature map of Asia, from Speed's Epitome.

The map shows Corea as an Island, a badly misprojected Japan and a small part of the Great Wall of China.  Part of America is shown, as is the Straits of Anian.  Fascinating shape for India.

Speed's Epitome is much rarer than the larger folio atlas and therefore this map is quite scarce on the market.
