the Alstaette Germany area as they were in 1842. This reprint
was published 1995. The original is in the "Staatsbibliothek
(state library) in Berlin". This card was drawn by a Prussian
officer by hand and illustrated the exact cartographic location
of "Münsterland" in 1842. Thank you to Karl Shulte for scanning
the reprint and sending it to us. |
