Antique Map of the Township of Staphorst by Kuyper (1865)

Description: Overijssel: Gemeente Staphorst, Rouveen. These scarse detailed maps of Dutch Towns originate from the 'Gemeente-atlas' of Jacob Kuyper. This atlas of all towns in the Netherlands was published from 1865-1870 and included all towns in the Dutch province of Overijssel. These maps are also known as a Kuyperkaart or Kuyperkaartjes. We carry multiple versions of these prints - coloured, outline coloured and not coloured. Please inquire, also if you are looking for a place currently not listed.
