Edition originale
Folio (13 4/8 x 8 inches). Woodcut printer's device on title-page and last leaf, LARGE WOODCUT FOLDING MAP (washed and folds and one or two closed tears restored on verso), wood-engravings in the text (last leaves spotted and wormed). 18th-century tan panelled sheep (worn with loss at the extremities). Provenance: with the near contemporary ownership inscription of Paul v. Vallis on the title-page; the early ownership inscription of Godofridus Gilkens, dated the 16th of August 1596 also on the title-page; with the printed book label of Sergei Sobolewski (1803-1870) on the front paste-down, and his extensive notes on the front endpapers, his sale List & Francke, 1873, lot 4004; with the printed library label of the celebrated Chilean historian Diego Barros Arana (1830-1907) also on the front paste-down; and the leather library label of G.J. Avanitidi below. Fourth and most complete edition containing more accounts of the New World than previous editions (first published Basel, 1532). With the celebrated world map "Typus cosmographicus universalis", with an ANGEL AT EACH POLE WITH A CRANK TO TURN THE WORLD ON ITS AXIS which at the time of the first edition was a visual representation of Copernican theory predating by 11 years publication of his "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium". The map is identical to that in the first edition of 1532, except for slight variations in type and text, this the issue with "Tropicus Capricorni" printed above the tropical line. Shirley attributes the cartography of this map to Münster and the border decoration to Holbein, who was working with several Basel publishers at the time. It is of particular interest especially for its "richness of artistic decoration" (Shirley). The work contains accounts of the voyages of Cadamosto, the three voyages of Columbus, Nino, Pinzon, Vespucius, Cabral, and part of the Fourth Decade of Peter Martyr, "also many other pieces which do not relate to America" (Sabin). Beginning with Madrignano's latin version of the "Paesi novamente retrovati", and followed by ten accounts, all of which had been previously published except the second, they include Vespucci's letter to Piero Soderinin Gonfalonier of Florence, recording his four voyages which was first published in 1507 as an appendix to Waldseemuller's "Cosmographiae Introductio"; the first publication of a letter from King Manuel of Portugal to Leo X relating the conquest of Malacca and the relief of Goa by Albuquerque; Madrignano's Latin translation of the "Itinerario" of Ludovico di Varthema, printed Rome 1510; Brocardus's description of the Holy Land; the travels of Marco Polo; the travels of Hayton the Armenian; a description of Russia by Matthias of Miechow first published in Cracow in 1517; another description of Russia by Paolo Giovio, first published in Rome 1525; Peter the Martyr's Fourth Decade, fist published in Basel in 1521; and an account of the antiquities of Prussia by Erasmuns Stella, also Basel 1510 (Modern Language Review, volume II, 1907). Additions to the present edition include the second and third Cortez letters, letters on propagation of the Gospel among Indians, epistle of Bishop of Temixtitan in "Huketan," and the summary of Herborn's discourse on the conversion of the Indians.

Folio (12 1/2 X 8 in.; 31.8 x 20.3 cm). Woodcut printer's device on title-page and last leaf, large woodcut folding map, two small woodcut text illustrations (pp. 21 and 93), woodcut initials. BINDING/CONDITION: Contemporary pigskin over wooden boards, each cover decorated in blind with panels of floral and saints roll tools, the spine in five compartments with four raised bands; remains of two pairs of ties, some soiling, rubbed, a few worm trails on front pastedown and free endpaper. Tiny worm holes in margins of title-page and ?2, some browning on perpendicular centerfolds of map, faint marginal dampstaining in quires I-N, ink redactions affecting title-page and a few words on *1v. (64V1H) FOURTH AND MOST COMPLETE EDITION, AUGMENTED WITH MORE ACCOUNTS OF THE NEW WORLD THAN PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED, WITH DISTINGUISHED PROVENANCE. Additions to the present edition include the second and third Cortez letters, the epistle of the Bishop of Temixtitan in "Huketan," and the summary of Herborn's discourse on the conversion of the Indians. The map is called for in all Basel editions (the Paris edition used a map by Oronce Fine). It is the issue with "Asia" printed at an almost even level with "Mare Caspia," and "Tropicus Capricorni" appears below the tropic line. The redactions, which affect the imprint on the title-page and colophon, as well as the list of contents ("Praefatio Simonis Grynaei ad Collimitium" in line 1 and "per Sebastianum Munsterum" in line 2 of ?1v and "per Sebastianum Munsterum" on Münster's introduction on *1r) make plain a deep-rooted aversion-most likely by the monks of Baumburg Abbey-for the Protestant Reformation. Grynaeus was a theologian of the Reformation; Münster had joined the Franciscans in 1505 but became an apostate in 1529 in order to assume an appointment at the University of Basel, which was dominated by the Reformed Church. Subsequently Basel had become an important center of the Protestant Reformation in the sixteenth century, with many of its printers, including Hervagius, producing Protestant works. PROVENANCE: Contemporary ownership inscription with Latin motto; later shelf-mark on the front paste-down; Augustinian Canons Regular, Baumburg Abbey, Bavaria ("Monasterij Baumburg" inscribed at head of title-page); American Antiquarian Society (its gift bookplate inscribed with the donor's name, Isaac Davis, on the front pastedown, blind-embossed stamp on title-page, deaccession stamp on bookplate and on lower pastedown) REFERENCES: Adams G-1338, Alden-Landis 555/42; Brown, The World Encompassed 65; Brunet IV:132 (".la plus complète [édition]"); JCB 1:202; Sabin 34104; Shirley 67 (world map).

Edition originale
Novus orbis regionum ac insularum verteribus incognitarum. Paris: Antoine Augerelle for Jean Petit, 8 November 1532 Folio (12 x 8 in.; 30.5 x 20. 3 cm). Petit's woodcut device on title-page, woodcut folding map in the first state ("Nova, Et Integra Universi Orbis Descriptio" with Fine's imprint "Orontius F. Delph.1531 Mense Julio") decorated with a finely detailed border of flowers and bunches of grapes, two putti, two mermaids, and the French royal coat of arms below the title banner, woodcut initials. BINDING/CONDITION: Map shaved along bottom margin with tiny mend to verso of left margin not affecting image, title-page stained, occasional light toning and foxing, more prevalent in latter half of text, Sebastian Münster's name redacted in ink on [alpha]1v and [delta]4r. Later stiff vellum, manuscript title on spine, edges sprinkled red. Quarter brown morocco folding case. (64V1F) A SUPERB COPY OF THE FIRST PARIS EDITION WITH THE FIRST STATE OF THE RARE DOUBLE-CORDIFORM MAP BY ORONCE FINE. Widely regarded as the first general history of travels, this fine collection of voyages was published in Basel a few months earlier with a world map attributed to Sebastian Münster. Fine's map is "a rendering considerably in advance of any others printed earlier.a detailed woodcut, geographically much superior to the large oval map.in the Basle editions" (Shirley). This new form of projection showing both the north and south poles was used by Mercator in his 1538 world map and by Lafreri in 1560; it is a marked departure from the speculative geography of Waldseemüller and Ruysch. A good portion of the right-hand (or southern) cordum is occupied by the newly discovered but still unexplored Antarctic land mass ("Terra Australis") and given the lack of any knowledge of the region, it is surprisingly accurate. Fine names the lower Pacific "Mare magellanicum," one of the first uses of the navigator's name on a map. The definition of the west coast of Mexico is one of the earliest to show the discoveries of Cortés. The text contains the first three voyages of Columbus, the four voyages of Vespucci, an extract of the Fourth Decade of Peter Martyr, as well as the voyages of Cadamosto, Nino, Pinzon, and Cabral. Other accounts deal with the travels of Marco Polo and voyages to Africa, Russia, Palestine, the Moluccas, and elsewhere.
