[QUOTE="BTZ64, post: 1723930, member: 12715"]Hi to all, Bought on Ebay (9.13 Euros)and received today. This map of Ireland was advertised on Ebay France as : Reproduction de Carte Irlande sur Parchemin,John Speed 1610. Just put it between glass and flat board to flatten it and check. There is some minor pieces missing and fold traces which I try now to keep flat altogether. The Paper seems to me really a Parchment and I have the feeling that it is an original Map of Ireland having been part of an Atlas or a Book from this period..(1610) It is intiltled "The Kingdome of Irland" With two spelling mistakes...?? The dimensions are: 50CM L by 37CM W Have attached some photos for you to inspect and give me "Hopefully" Good News...Would be able to take some more if requested...If yes Pls tell me which details.[ATTACH=full]237553[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237554[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237555[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237556[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237557[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237558[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237559[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237560[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]237561[/ATTACH] I do believe that this Map can be restored properly and I am planning to do it if you think it will be better restored than as it is... Looking forward to your Useful advises and acknowledgements. JB[/QUOTE]
