----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Hello there Map People, I have a customer who has pointed out to me on two seperate historic prints we have, an island that doesn't (or no longer) exists. It is called on the 1594 Nova Francia map "Fris Lad" and on the reproduction of " A map of the North Pole and the Parts adjoining" from the "The English Atlas" by Moses Pitt in 1680, "Freesland." Curious, what is this mysterious island and where did it go ???
