This is the 2nd edition of Forlani's map of North America with the imprint by Zaltieri who is known to have bought some of Forlani's plates and adding his name to the map. The map was separately published and added to an Italian composite atlas.
This map is very scarce and geographically important as it is the first map to show the West coast of North America in such great detail!
