Old Map of the Turkish / Ottoman Empire by John Speed, 1627 - Turkey, Balkans, Greece, Iran, Egypt, Syria sebastian munster At 10x10 inches the smallestThis old and exceedingly rare map shows the Turkish Empire in the early 1600s. Created by one of Britain's most famed mapmakers, John Speed, the map was originally published in the twin atlases "The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine" and "A Prospect of the Most Famous Parts of the World." This map looks great at all sizes: 12x16 inches (31x41cm), 18x24 inches (45. 5x61cm), and 24x30 inches (61x76cm), but it looks even better when printed large.
