Billy, the page Wasbach linked to is a book search!
And following the alphabetical order you'll find it when you reach "Panorama des M".
If you are interested in the technical aspects of printing with film your local library can probably help.

You can find the facsimile that is printed with your film there - if you look for it.

Ok:
your film is made for the printing of a facsimile of the map from 1829, printed by the "Archiv-Verlag" in Braunschweig, Germany, in the year 1984.
You find it here:
http://www.bookmaps.de/lib/ruc/p/a/pan_26.html
Even such a facsimile normally has a limited printrun (that has to be paid) and after the printing, the film (normally) is destroyed or thrown away. (In extremlely rare cases the film travels to the USofA and shows up at Findartinfo - at the end.)

What do you mean?

In Italy? The map is from Germany.

Has she lost her mind ?
No not, in my opinion. She's just deluding herself.

This is a negative film of an offset print with repairings (you need it, to prepare a printing plate).
So it is the preliminary stage of a modern print of an old map. The text says (translated:) “Panorama of the Main (a river that flows into the Rhine) and its nearest environment - Frankfurt at the Main to Mai… - painted by F. W. Delkeskamp, and engraved by C. A. Helmsauer – original edition – Frankfurt at Main by Friedrich Wilmans 1829”.
Absolutly no value – unfortunately.
This film is from 1960 to 1980.

Wasbach

I'll give it a shot.
Weissenau Abbey - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weissenau_Abbey
Der Rhein - runs through perhaps
Mainspitze Germany - Copy of an old map.
I don't speak German but this is what I see.
Warm Regards,
