I have an interesting 19th-century reproduction of a map by Antoine Jacobsz
and am trying to determine when, where, and under what circumstances it was
published.
 
The title cartouche (at lower left) contains the following text: "Americae
Septentrionale Pars. From the West-Indische Paskaert; waer in de graden der
bredde over weder-zeyden vande middellyn wassende soo vergrooten...beschreyen
door A. Jacobsz. [1621]." Below this cartouche is the text: "From the
original on vellum in the collection of E.B. O'Callaghan, L.L.D."
 
A second cartouche at upper right gives the mapmaker's name. Both the
cartouches, the borders (at right and bottom), four elaborate coats-of-arms,
coastal outlines and a vignette of a sailing ship are all very finely (and
brightly) hand colored. A printed note at lower left reads: "Lith. by F.
D'Avignon, New York."
 
This reproduction had evidently been bound into a book--a large octavo,
judging from the folds in the paper. The image size is 38 cm x 49.5 cm
(height x width).
 
I would be most grateful for any information on this reproduction, the
lithographer and E.B. O'Callaghan.
 
Thank you.

twice.
