Oblong 2° (270 x 350mm). Hand-coloured lithographic panorama on 17 folding panels, with 87 numbered figures, extending to 5,950mm. Lithographed by Z.M. den Koning and printed by E. Spanier from drawings by Hoffmeister. (First panel split at fold, a few chipped at edge.) Publisher's printed tan wrappers (detached, a little worn at edges).
