I didn't realize how long it had been since I posted new material here. I've been working on a few projects on the side, and time has just slipped by. I should be posting some nice bird images soon as well.
I bought this atlas a couple of years ago, and as the binding was falling apart they were very easy to scan. I have decided that the atlas itself is not salvageable as at least one map seemed to be missing, the binding was disintegrating, the spine was missing, and the covers had fallen off. Thus, I am selling the maps individually in my bookstore, ZephyrusBooks.com, on this page HERE.
There are about 100 maps in the book. This atlas had maps of all the French Departments and overseas possessions of the time. Every department of France at the time is represented on its own page, with political, demographic and other information on the reverse Vuillemin issued may version s of this atlas over the years, changing the border details, title decorations, fonts and the like over from edition to edition. The size would also vary, and while not the larges examples, these are larger than many.
