Remarks
The publishing house Cartographica Helvetica produces facsimiles of significant manuscript maps as well as of rarely printed maps, whereby only the best reproduction methods are used. All are printed in offset technique.
Scientific texts (in German) to most of the facsimiles provide information on the maps, the cartographers, the map production techniques, and the historical background. These brochures are also available separately.
Dimensions are width times height of the map itself (not of the map sheet), in centimeters.
Cost: net in CHF plus shipping.
Delivery: unfolded in a tube or portfolio.
