sells the Piri Reis facsimile.
PIRI REIS' MAP, 1513. Colored reproduction, 34" x 24", of a fragment found
during renovation of Topkapu Palace in Turkey. Depicts the Atlantic coast
of North and South America and portions of the coasts of Africa and Europe.
A notation describes Columbus's first voyage on map. According to
Nebenzahl, this is one of only two world maps with a direct Columbus
delineation for part of America. Includes 44 page booklet, with fold-out
map, in English and four other languages describing the map and its
history. Imported from Turkey.
Price $25.00 +- $4.00 shipping.
Hope this helps.
