<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 4307202, member: 7360"]Oops, I've just seen that the volume at Christie's was described as octavo, which seems to cover various sizes but is smaller than quarto. Nevertheless, I think the idea that it was originally folded into a volume holds good, because it explains the narrow missing area in the middle, and perhaps also why there don't seem to be many on the market. The maps that remain are possibly still part of other volumes, so difficult to find with a search. How did you find it, by the way?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
