- Trifle yellowed; a few white stains.

= Van der Heijden 64, the 2nd state (of 3); Koeman/ Van der Krogt 3000:2.2. Very nice map, originally published in 1608 with figured borders. Used in the Atlas of 1630 and subsequent editions in second and third state, without these borders (except for the narrow ornamental border at the bottom). The cartouche in the lower right corner reads "Ghedruckt t'Amsterdam, bij Willem Blaeu op't Water inde vergulde Zonnewyser". "Lest he should be confused with his formidable rival Johannes Janssonius, it was probably in the course of 1640 that Willem Jansz. changed his signature on the general map of the Netherlands into Willem Blaeu." (Van der Heijden).
- Waterstained in lower part; lower margin cut just outside the border line; sm. tear in upper edge just affecting the image; a few closed tears in lower margin.

- Sl. yellowed in lower right corner.
= Van der Heijden/ Blonk 43, 3rd state (of 4). Fine, decorative map. It is a very faithful copy of the map published by Jaillot, with only a few changes, the most interesting being the change of situation in the sea battles: the burning and sinking Dutch ship present on the French version has now completely floundered and disappeared, and its French opponent is in dear trouble and perishing.
- Central fold; waterstained = Van der Heijden/ Blonk 89.13.

= Blonk-Van der Wijst 29: "Deze kaart is een getrouwe kopie van de tweede kaart van Jaillot/ Sanson, de kaart van 1673 "Provinces Unies des Pays Bas". De cartouche staat in spiegelbeeld. Het 'possessed' staat in de verleden tijd en slaat dus op de periode na de inval van de Franse troepen in de Republiek. Karel II, aan wie de kaart is opgedragen, stierf in 1685 en de kaart zal dus voor dat jaar zijn gemaakt." Rare. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LXXIV.
- Some foxing in upper corners; sm. closed tears in centre upper margin.
= Van der Heijden/ Blonk 60, final state (of 3).
- Two vague oblique folds in upper right corner.
= The first detailed map of Aruba, "gevolgd naar de opmeting in den jare 1820 gedaan, onder directie van den Kapitein ter Zee W.A. van Spengler en in den jare 1825 met verscheidene nieuwe bepalingen verrykt door den Kapitein R.F. van Raders". In 1773 a large map on seventeen sheets was made, which showed only the island's coastline. The present map was made after the Netherlands regained possession of 'Curaçao en Onderhorigheden' in 1816. Up-to-date reports and maps of Curaçao and Bonaire were soon made, but a survey of Aruba had to wait until 1820, when Captain Van Spengler, port warden of Curaçao from 1816 onwards, offered to perform this task. A copy of his manuscript map eventually found its way to the 'Departement van oorlog of Koloniën' in The Hague. In 1824, news arrived in The Hague that gold was found on Aruba. Immediately, Captain R.F. van Raders was sent to the island to investigate. During his three visits to Aruba in 1824 and 1825, Van Raders carried Van Spengler's map or a copy of it, and added new information to it concerning the gold mining. In 1825, this manuscript map was made in print. For extensive information on the mapping of Aruba in this period, see Caert Thresoar 2009-3, p.65-70. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LXXV.
