5000, MB, New World Map, Gaspar Baillieul

MB manufactured this very rare map puzzle in 1994. The title is New World Map, by the French geographer Gaspar Baillieul.

The puzzle is NEW, with its original FACTORY SEAL. There is just a very small tear in the seal. One of the sides of the box has some discoloration by the sun, as shown in the photographs.

MB also published a 1500 piece edition of this puzzle. Other manufacturers published larger map puzzles as well. Examples are Educa‘s 6000 piece version of Ancient Map of the World, by Blaeu, and the 9000 piece version published by Ravensburger of the Big World Map 1611, by Van den Keere.
