Oblong 4:o. I-VIII (lacks halftitle, I-XIII (lacks halftitle), (1 blank), I-X (lacks halftitle), I-XI (lacks halftitlel), (1 blank), I-XVI (halftitle sits as title in the beginning) pp. 25 coloured lithograph plates (all, a few short marginal tears)
All loose in original wrappers, worn, upper with lithographed decorations, defective spine.

This work is the first chromo-lithographic atlas published in Finland. It was issued in 9 parts 1879-1888. The introduction to the work and the text to the plates were written by J. A. Palmén, but the text seems, as in the present copy, to have been left unfinished after the issue of Part V. (Anker).
