Description
The globe, with the western and eastern hemispheres, are shown at the gameboard of this roll-and-move game printed in Paris.
Reprinted in 1780. By this date James Cook (1728-1779) had radically mofified the known face of he Pacific, but this is not reflected at the gameboard. Perhaps because of the cost involved in engraving a new plate.
