World map on Mercator's projection showing the track of the 'Centurion' round the world.

This finely drawn map of the Pacific shows Capt. George Anson's route across the Ocean in his ship the “Centurion” from Acapulco in Mexico to Manila in the Philippine Islands, following the tracks of one of the Spanish treasure galleons, the “Nuestra Seignora de Cabadongo” which he intercepted and captured in 1743 off Cape Espiritu Santo on the eastern coast of the Philippine Islands.

In excellent condition in an elegant frame.
