Bell'esemplare con qualche piccola macchietta nel margine bianco.Gli Eredi Homann (1730 - 1848) casa editrice di carte geografiche con sede a Norimberga, attivi dalla metà alla fine del XVIII secolo. Dopo la morte del grande cartografo Johann Baptist Homann (1664 - 1724), la direzione dell'azienda passò al figlio Johann Christoph Homann (1703 - 1730).  J. C. Homann, forse rendendosi conto che non sarebbe sopravvissuto a lungo al padre, stabilì nel suo testamento che l'azienda sarebbe stata ereditata dai suoi due direttori, Johann Georg Ebersberger (1695 - 1760) e Johann Michael Franz (1700 - 1761), e che sarebbe stata pubblicata solo con il nome di "Eredi Homann".  Questa denominazione,   compare sulle mappe a partire dal 1731 circa.  L'azienda continuò a pubblicare mappe in quantità sempre minore fino alla morte dell'ultimo proprietario, Christoph Franz Fembo (1781 - 1848).  La Gumina n. 428.
