RARE 1899 HUGE Rand McNally Encyclopedia & Atlas Of The World Vol II Revised Ed. Rand-McNally Encyclopedia and Atlas of the World with Eighty Full-Page Colored Maps, Illustrated with Nearly Two Thousand Engravings. Volume II Revised Edition / The Minneapolis Journals Edition.

This book starts on page 401 and ends at 800 - volume one would have pages 1-400. Published Chicago: Rand McNally & Co.

Type of maps: Original printed color lithographed maps. Any 1800's Rand McNally's atlases of this ilk are increasingly difficult to acquire. There are a plethora of the much sought after colored old state and world maps.

The encyclopedia portion of this text is really fascinating as it details alphabetically various things - this book starts in the F's with Fo'rum and fossils and ends with zygophyllaceae, then has old color maps. We have lots of old geography books, atlases, and rare antique collectibles in the store! Condition: In overall acceptable antique preowned condition. The covers are mostly detached and pages are bent if not detached from spine - does appear to have all 400 pages though.

All maps are present and in overall excellent condition. Very loved and well used book! Be sure to check out our store for even more - with new items coming each week.
