Harrisse No. 99: "This extremely curious and interesting plaquette purports to be a translation into German of a letter describing the arrival of a vessel from Brazil to a port not mentioned ... The letter describes an exploration coastwise of nearly two thousand miles undertaken with two vessels belonging to one 'NoNo' (?) and to the well-known Christopher de Haro, with the authorization of the King of Portugal." There seems to be no uniformity of opinion amoung scholars regarding the date of this letter and the exploration it describes. Mentions a.o. the natural resources of Brazil and the manners and customs of its population. |

Verrazzano, G. Globus-karte vom Jahre 1530 in 12 Sektionen mit Angabe der Entdeckungen des Giovanni Verrazzano. München, Ludwig Rosenthal's Antiquariat, (1924). One sheet, 21,5 x 43,5 cm. (# 5766) |
| EUR 25,- | |
Photolithographic reproduction of the original Verrazzano-Globe, made in gilt brass, now in the Pierpont Morgan Library in New York. This globe of the world has been executed by Robert de Bailly in the year 1530 probably at Dieppe. It contains quotations of Giovanni Verrazzano's (1485 - 1528) discoveries and shows a division in meridians from 10 to 10°, containing from the the parallel circles only the equators, the tropics and the polar circles. America wears on the globe the name: "America, mondus novus" and is divided in 4 independant parts: North-, Central-, South America and the Islands. Among the names of the American territories mentioned are: Terra Magellani, Yvcatas, Cuba, Canibales. Very interesting is the fact that the results of Verrazzano's expeditions are quoted on the globe and that this territory is named "Terra Verrazana". The Austral-Land opposite the south point of America is named "Brasielie regio". |
