Two loose maps previously laid in by a former owner, but not otherwise related to this atlas, have been cataloged individually as NB6.B5698.665a and NB6.Aℓ437.696p, and shelved separately.

The following maps called for by the index are wanting: No. 78 (Brema & Ferda), no. 149 (Novum Belgium), and no. 161 (Maritima Brasiliae). Manuscript annotations in pencil on the index and on the versos of adjacent sheets state that nos. 78 and 161 were "never in ... except in index," but physical evidence suggests these maps are in fact wanting. Manuscript annotation on the index by no. 149 states the map is "out".

Nos. 56 (Germania), 135 (Terra Sancta), and 146 (America), are loose, but present in their correct location. Nos. 58 (Danubius fluvius) and 59 (Rhenus fluvius) have signifigant tears.

Bound in contemporary full vellum with embossed emblems on boards.
