Four Small Copies of the Smith Map

Smith Maps

This depicts four small copies of the Smith Map which appeared in small atlases. The interesting thing about this is how they vary from the Smith Map, although they all claim to be derived from the Smith Map. Upper Lefthand Corner - Minor - Mercator, 1628, Amsterdam; Upper Righthand Corner - Oblong - Mercator, 1634, Amsterdam; Lower Lefthand Corner - Hall, 1636, London (shown above); and Lower Righthand Corner - minor - Mercator, 1648, Amsterdam.
