aller Welt wolbekannt / des gewaltigen widerstandes halb / so sie zu
unsern zeiten hat wider den grimmigen Feind
der Christenheit gethan.“ On the banner: „Anno

Woodcut, printed from two woodblocks, originally

Münster's 'Cosmographey', Basle about 1550/70,

Very nice impression, smaller tears at margins,
