Can anyone find a better version of this historical gnomonic projection of the North Atlantic region? The attached copy is watermarked for a stock image company. I'm looking for a legible scan of the original from the 1880s. I'm interested in it both as a demo of the gnomonic projection and for its antique (and inaccurate!) representation of ocean bathymetry.
