MÜNSTER, SEBASTIAN. Asia wie es Jetziger Zeit nach den Furnemesten Herzschafften Abgetheilet und Beschriben ist. Double-page woodblock map of Asia. 13x15 3/4 inches sheet size, German text on verso; hand-colored; upper margin replaced with top edges of lettering reinstated in fine manuscript. Basel: Sebastian Petri, [1588]
Significantly updated from Muenster's first map of Asia originally published in 1540. This edition was largely based on Ortelius's cartography, which remained the standard of the continent for the latter half of the sixteenth-century.
