[1319] See Vol. IV. p. 92. The 1568 map is a part of an Atlante maritimo, of which a full-size colored fac-simile of the part showing the Moluccas is given in Ruge’s Geschichte des Zeitalters der Entdeckungen. It is a parchment collection of twenty-seven maps showing the Portuguese possessions in the two Indies. Cf. Katalog der Handschriften der Kais. Off. Bibl. zu Dresden, 1882, vol. i. p. 369.

[1322] There is a full-size fac-simile in Jomard’s Monuments de la Géographie, pl. xxi., but it omits the legends given in the tablets; in Lelewel, vol. i. pl. v.; also cf. vol. i. p. xcviii, and vol. ii. pp. 181, 225; and, much reduced from Jomard, in Daly’s Early Cartography, p. 38.

[1325] There are copies of this first edition in the Harvard College, Boston Public, Astor, and Carter-Brown libraries, and in the Brevoort Collection. It should have thirty small copperplate maps, inserted in the text. Cf. Carter-Brown Catalogue, vol. i. no. 292; Stevens, Historical Collections, vol. i. no. 648; O’Callaghan Catalogue, no. 1,866 (now Harvard College copy); Court, no. 284; Rich, Catalogue (1832), nos. 51, 55, etc.
Two of its maps show America, but only one gives the western coast, while both have the exaggerated continental Tierra del Fuego. The map sketched in the text is given in fac-simile in Stevens’s Notes. Both maps were repeated in the 1576 edition (Venice, with 1575 in the colophon). This edition shows forty-seven maps; and pp. 157-184 (third book) treat of America. Besides a map of the world it has a “carta da navigar” (p. 198), maps of Cuba and other islands, and a plan of Mexico and its lake. There are copies in the Boston Public and Harvard College libraries, Mr. Deane’s Collection, etc. Cf. Stevens, Historical Collections, vol. i. no. 82; Carter-Brown, vol. i. no. 309; Muller (1872), no. 1,255.
Another edition was issued at Venice in 1590. Cf. Boston Public Library Catalogue, no. 6271.14, Carter-Brown, i. 393; Murphy, no. 2,010. Later editions were issued at Venice in 1604 (forty-eight maps); in 1605 (Carter-Brown, ii. 40); and in 1620 (Carter-Brown, ii. 241; Cooke, no. 2,858, now in Harvard College Library), which was published at Padua, and had maps of North America (p. 161), Spagnolla (p. 165), Cuba (p. 172), Jamaica (p. 175), Moluccas (p. 189), and a mappemonde (p. 193). The last edition we have noted was issued at Venice in 1686, with the maps on separate leaves, and not in the text as previously.
