Gilles Robert de Vaugondy: "POLOGNE," 6 x 6 inches, in five differently-colored versions. The first two, both published 1781, still have a 1750 date
on them. The following three, all published 1782, all have an inexpertly changed date printed on the cartouche: 1782. The Vaugondys produced
many atlases from 1740 to the end of the century. Apart from the large 'Atlas Universelle' and the small 'Atlas Militaire', they allowed their maps
to be 'licensed' by others. Vaugondy maps, often dated 1750, were issued into the 1780's. Later editions had new maps engraved -- three above are
dated 1782 -- but they followed Vaugondy's outdated geography. The first, 1781 map, dated 1750, is from Beach Antique Maps & Prints, on eBay; the second 1781 map
is from bertius on eBay; then follow three 1782 versions, the last from www.mapandmaps.com
