Local Note

The Schomburg Center's Manuscripts, Archives & Rare Book Division's copy in Sc Rare 266-P (accession no. D70194) is imperfect: lacking the folded map; and original cover, bound in red cloth over board library binding and gilt spine. Probably one of the books added to the collection during Catherine A. Latimer, and Arturo A. Schomburg's years, as librarians and curators.

Also available on microfilm; researchers restricted to the microform copy in Sc Micro R-868.
