Colour folding copper plate engraved map showing Australia and the islands of Southeast Asia, 36 x 35cm, folded 15.2 x 10.2cm, title label on upper cover. Very good copy.

This Japanese 1878 map of Australia, New Zealand, Borneo, New Guinea and the Philippines was based on two atlases held in the Gifu Teachers' College - Mitchell's New School Atlas and Cornell's High School Atlas. Shapes of Sumatra and Java are not accurate here. Australia is divided into different colonies and coloured accordingly. The majority of what is the Northern Territory today is coloured in blue and titled Alexandra Land, a smaller pink section above Alexandra Land is labelled "Northern State".
