Page "August Heinrich Petermann" Paragraph 49

“ Our ‘ Communications ’ will differ from all similar publications in that they will summarise and graphically illustrate the results of new geographic explorations in precisely executed and carefully detailed maps.

Every issue of our periodical will therefore include one or more map supplements, and their design will guarantee a continuous and easily accessible supplement in easy-to-manage form with special regard for those who own Stielers Hand-Atlas, Berghaus ’ s Physical Atlas, and other map publications of the ( Perthes ) Institute.

We will take special care to always present our readers with important new discoveries immediately or as fast as possible .”
