Honan [Henan] (Antique map)
Very uncommon map of the Henan province, published in Shanghai in 1917. Its capital was then Kaifeng, and Zhengzhou is referred to as Chengchow Fu. This map was featured in John Edwin Dingles New Atlas of China, a rare publication from the Far Eastern Geographical Establishment, offering a remarkable testament to the Western presence in Shanghai after the First Opium War. Although bilingual (English-Mandarin), the atlas was likely primarily targeted at foreign businessmen seeking opportunities for profit and adventure in the country. Colored lithography, in very fine condition.
No Binding
Very fine - Excelente
