About This Design

Antique Hawaii Map Poster

Antique Hawaii Map Poster

Antique Hawaii Map Poster - This is the first separate map of the Hawaiian Islands published in Hawaii. It was engraved and drawn by Kalama, one of the best student engravers at the Lahainaluna Mission School on Maui, who made the larger 1838 Map of the Hawaiian Islands, of which only two copies are known. This 1837 map probably served as a prototype for the 1838 map. It was the most detailed map yet published, showing many place names on the islands unfamiliar to Cook and Vancouver and not appearing on their maps, exceeded in detail only by the enlarged 1838 edition which added more place names. The first map produced by the press at Lahainaluna, under the guidance of Missionary Lorrin Andrews, was a world map in 1834, followed by five school atlas maps in 1836. In 1840 a small school atlas was completed, followed by a larger school atlas in 1840 and again in1842, primarily copied from Olney's School Atlas. This 1837 map is larger than the atlas maps and was issued as a separate. It is known in only three collections and is rare. Kalama went on to become one of the best surveyors in the islands.

I originally ordered this print in a larger size but was not pleased with the clarity of it. When I contacted Zazzle, they responded really quickly and were very helpful. I was able to reorder the print in a smaller size and it was shipped to me within a couple of weeks. The print was packaged well to ensure there was no damage during transit (Eco friendly, too!), and I am really pleased with it. I am so grateful to the customer service team for the professional way they handled my order. I had this printed on matt finish card and I was really pleased with the quality. The colours were rich and the image sharp.
