- Slightly browned. = Hameleers I, 30; D'Ailly 132.

(Amsterdam). Woodcut bird's eye plan, 15,5x17,8 cm., on a leaf with text from the Italian edition of S. MÜNSTER, Cosmographia, 16th cent. (left margin cut on borderline). - AND an optical view of Amsterdam, publ. by G.B. Probst: "'t' Stad Huys van Amsteldam." (mounted, defects).

= Hameleers I, 38; D'Ailly 128.

AND 11 engr. views of Amsterdam on 9 lvs., i.a. "A perspective view of the admiralty office, dock-yards, storehouses &c. at Amsterdam" and "View of the Herring Packers Tower in the city of Amsterdam" from T. BANKES a.o., A New Royal Authentic and Complete System of Universal Geography, 1789.

- Some foxing/ dustsoiling, mainly in blank margins. A few small tears in blank margins.

= Shows Van Niftrik's expansion project. It was soon rejected because of the extreme reparcelling of the area it dictated, which, in combination with the thereby necessary extensive expropriation, would be too expensive. Heinemeijer/ Wagenaar, Amsterdam in Kaarten p.148-151: "In 1867 had de stadsingenieur [Van Niftrik] zijn werk voltooid. Het resultaat was een weldoordacht, esthetisch en civiel-technisch verantwoord plan. (...) [Van Niftrik] trachtte hiermee op moderne wijze aan te sluiten bij de 17e-eeuwse traditie: een imposante uitbreidingsgordel rondom de oude stad, verdeeld naar functies van wonen, industrie en recreatie. Opmerkelijk is de plaatsing van het Centraal Station ter hoogte van het Sarphatipark." Ten years later, Jan Kalff created a new plan, based on the old agricultural allotment, much more practical but much less imaginative. This is a very rare plan, printed in 200 copies for municipal use only, and not sold in trade (Hameleers, Kaarten van Amsterdam 7/3).

AND 2 other large maps of parts of Amsterdam, i.a. "Plan van het Zuidelijk gedeelte der Gemeente Amsterdam" (lithogr. map by A.J. van der Stok Jr., 1873. Frayed; lacks upper left corner).

- A few foxed spots; two closed tears in right part, ±7 cm. within the image; rolled.

= Rare interesting plan with the Central Station projected south of the historical centre. Not in D'Ailly and not in Hameleers, Kaarten van Amsterdam; cf. Hameleers II, no.7, showing a map with almost the same title and almost same composition (smaller) and lithographed by the same, designed by A. Huët. In that plan, the central station is planned right in the city centre on the Damrak as an end station. The planned routes are also almost the same. Perhaps our plan is a variant designed by Huët?

AND 1 other later plan of Amsterdam (publ. by Publieke Werken, 1910).

- Trimmed to the border line; some foxing.

AND 4 engr. views of Amsterdam, i.a. by R. VINKELES and C. PHILIPS JACOBSZ. - ADDED: 10 miscell. Dutch views.

- Slightly frayed; sl. foxed. = Van der Krogt/ Koeman II, 3100:2.

"Brabant". Handcol. engr. map, titled in the image, 34,5x46 cm., ibid., G. Mercator, 1609.

- Yellowed; crease along middle fold. = Van der Krogt/ Koeman I, 3100:1.A.

- Upper and lower edge trimmed on/ just within the border line; doubled; some vague waterst. in right and left margin.
