Richard
and Penelope Betz welcome you to
Hemispheres
Antique Maps & Prints, specializing in fine original
antique maps from the 16th
through 19th
centuries. Our inventory is strongest in antiquarian maps of Africa
though we have fine antique maps of the world & other regions as
well.
We have just added some superb world antique maps in
original color by Blaeu, Hondius,
and Tavernier, as well as some special maps of the Americas,
and additional maps of Africa including those by Munster. Also
on our website are attractive antique maps by Speed and
Munster including ones of Africa.
We have added a number of antique books with antique maps by Linschoten, Ludolf,
Heylin, etc. Also a tremendous number of important reference books on antique maps
and cartography, a number of which are scarce books
(Ortelius facsimile atlas, other Theatrum facsimile atlases, Laor, Cortesao, Tibbetts, Nordenskiold, etc.). These can be found
under "Books" on our
"Index to All Maps &
Books" webpage, or by clicking on the following
