Old color example of Jansson's map of the North Polar regions, newly revised by Frederick De Wit.
The map shows Baffin's Bay, Button's Bay and James Bay, Greenland, Iceland, Spitsberge (with incomplete coastline), Lappland, Russian and European Asia, etc.
Numerous compass roses, sailing ships, etc. Two decorative cartouches.
This is the first De Wit edition of the map, which includes his name in the title cartouche (Fredericum de Wit). A later edition shortens his name to F. De Wit.
