Description
The largest postal map of Europe, published in Vienna in the midst of the Napoleonic Wars. This postal map of Europe first appeared in 1798 and is considered one of the earliest published works of Tranquillo Mollo (1767-1837). The work includes a small inset map: "From St. Petersburg to Moscow are 730 versts, or 54 3/4 posts. From Vienna to Moscow are 147 1/2 posts".
The map includes a meticulous compilation of the 100s of different postal routes in Europe, each individually annotated to show 8 different types of postal service.
Complete title "Neueste Allgemeine Postkarte von Europa in welcher samtliche Postrouten aller europaischen Staaten nach den zuverlässigsten Postbüchern angezeigt sind Mit fernerer Benüzung der besten astronomischen Ortsbestimmungen und der vor züglichsten geographischen Hilfsmitteln. Entworfen von Johann Pongraz Lieutnant des k.k. 2ten Feld Artill: Regnts.

With further use of the best astronomical determinations of locations and the most excellent geographical aids. Designed by Johann Pongraz, Lieutenant of the Imperial and Royal 2nd Field Artillery Regiment, according to the latest postal reports and directories, but supplemented and corrected in the year 1807.
Three states of the map are recorded: 1798, 1804 and 1807.
Mollo initially worked as an assistant in the music publishing house "Artaria & Co." in Vienna from 1792 but became a partner with his compatriot Giovanni Cappi in 1793.
