Antique Maps XI - The Moon in the 1700's

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Ever wondered how astronomers saw the Moon in the 1700's? This map may be one of the earliest attempts to map the moon, undertaken almost 100 years before the Space Race began! This map is a beautiful piece of work suitable for use as a poster map or a beautiful computer background.

Antique Maps XI - The Moon in the 1700's details the Moon in 1748. I'm not sure who the original cartographer was, as I can't read the language it's written in! I suspect it's Dutch, but could very well be mistaken. The Moon is detailed, as an overset upon a basic globe of the Earth.

Print size of this map is 40.7 Inches Wide by 51.0 Inches High.



Maps produced by the Mysaniti Cartographers Guild were created with Campaign Cartographer 2. Symbols are for mapping in Campaign Cartographer 2.

This map is being distributed in high quality JPEG format. Other image formats are available upon request, to purchasers of this map. Sorry, this map is NOT available in CC2 format.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
