Thomas Jeffrys, 1750, A map of Peru and Chili.  Uncolored, about 6 by 3 1/2  inches. A handsome smaller map showing the western one third part of South America. Extends from just south of Patagonia to Panama.  It provides a  wonderful view of the region before Colombia, Ecuador and Bolivia were established and at a time when this vast region was split between Chile and Peru.  Other areas such as Quito (present day Colombia), Lima (not the city but as a region in Peru), Cujo (within Chile) and Tucumans (western part of north central present day Argentina) are indicated.  Shows landforms rivers, and settlements, the latter particularly along the coastal area.  An interesting early map. $75
