The sea atlas was developed by Senex and Harris to compete with Mount & Pageâ s wildly popular English Pilot sea series, but did not come to much fruitition and as such the maps are scarse.Artists and Engravers: Made by an anonymous engraver after 'Cutler & Halley'. Edmond Haller (1656-1742) was an English astronomer, meteorologist and geophysicist. Nathaniel Cutler.Condition: Very good, given age. Original middle fold, as issued.

General age-related toning and/or occasional minor defects from handling. Please study scan carefully.Keywords: ANTIQUE MAP-SEA CHART-WEST EUROPE-AZORES-ENGLAND-FRANCE-SENEX-KNAPTON(PCO) GK-255.
