But, in order to humour readers interested in ship-building, not only plates of flags were added, but also many interesting plates of ships: war ships, sectional plates, shipbuilding plates, plates of shipbuilding tools and attributes, etc. This copy contains the rare "Byvoegsel", which contains another 80 added flags on 20 handcol. plates.
