Description: Original antique chromolithographed, highly detailed 1896 map of the Balkan Peninsula in South East Europe, printed more than 125 years ago. It is titled "Balkanhalbinsel" in the upper margin and was published in Andrees Allgemeiner Handatlas by Velhagen and Klasing, Bielefeld and Leipzig, Germany, 1896. It is drawn on a scale of 1:3,000,000, and the image area measures 47 x 38.2 cm [18½" x 15"], with generous margins on all sides. Details include cities, towns, railroads, telegraph lines, and natural features, with topography drawn in relief. An inset at the upper left, drawn on the same scale, shows the northern extension of Moldavia. Condition: This map is in excellent condition, bright and clean, printed on a heavy paper stock, with no marks, rips, or tears. It is blank on the back, with no printing on the reverse side. Please see the scans and feel free to ask any questions. This is an original, authentic antique map, not a reproduction or modern reprint, and it is fully guaranteed to be genuine. The coverage area includes Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, and Slovenia, as well as Greece, with the island of Crete, and the European portion of Turkey. The map would make a handsome display in your den or office.
