A LETTER FROM DANZIG - 1670
If you have had the experience of looking for letters from the 17th century, you will understand that this era is quite hard to find. You will note that the 16th, 18th and 19th centuries are well-represented, but letters written within the 1600s are scarce. Below is an example of such a letter, written from Danzig to Amsterdam, via Hamburg, in June, 1670.

The map below shows the journey between the two points.
