MAP] JAILLOT, CHARLES HUBERT ALEXIS. Amerique Septentrionale divisee en Ses Principales parties... Paris: Hubert Jaillot, 1... ... Paris: Hubert Jaillot, 1719. The fifth state of this map (see below). 18 x 25 1/2 inches (46 x 65 cm); early outline color, with wide margins. Some toning to paper, minor soiling, a small defect at the central fold just affecting the upper rule, the number 5 (presumably numeration from an atlas) neatly inked in the margin at top right, but in all a sound example. In this issue, though California is more a peninsula than an island, it is missing the northern coastline and there is still a gap between the main American landmass and California at Mare Vermejo. There are other idiosyncrasies, such as a lake in Georgia, that persist from earlier issues. C
