Antique Pacific Ocean Maps
The Pacific ocean is the world's largest and the last discovered by Europeans. In our maps for sale, we see a gradual shift of European interest westward as they first chart the unexpected American continents, and then gradually shift to focus on the ocean itself. We have a stunningly detailed sea chart of the Pacific from California to Japan's Hokkaido by Danish Frederik de Wit any cartographical enthusiast should consider for their collection. We also have a lovely James Imray map of Japan and the eastern Chinese coast that was an important resource for sailors. With maps detailing the Americas, WW2 naval affairs, Dutch fortifications in the East Indies, Oceania, and more, there's something in this section for any kind of history lover.
