Waldseemüller world map offered for 300000 by German prince
Facsimile of the Waldseemüller 1507 world map, eight by four and a half feet, is offered for 300000 by Prince Waldburg-Wolfegg-Waldsee. Librarian Hild of Chicago Public Library discovered the piece and a facsimile is available for prospective buyers, with London agents handling the sale and a 1 percent commission for brokers. The map, printed in twelve sections with Cosmographiae Introductio, helped name America and reflects early cartography with ornate decorations and errors of latitude and longitude.
