Jaillot 1733 map of Asia
This is probably the 1719 state from Jaillot’s “Atlas françois”. It looks identical except that it is missing the “1719” date in the top right cartouche. It looks to me as if the date has been effaced. In any case, it was sold to me as “1733”. I do not find reference to a 1733 issue (or later). It mystifies me why someone would erase an earlier date and sell it as later unless the effaced map then passed through hands that were able to identify it as a later issue somehow.
