Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Very good. Original linen backing fragile and split in places. Some pen marks relating to Samuel A. Elliot's 1821 voyage. Comes with original cardboard slipcase with 'Sold by W. Robinson' stamp. Size 30 x 24 Inches. A fine example of John Cary's 1815 map of england and Wales. The map covers all of england and Wales as well as parts of Scotland. Cary identifies all towns and roads, noting mileage between most destinations. First issued in 1796, this map was one of the finest and most popular portable maps of the country available and consequently enjoyed considerably popularity and an over 50 year run. The present example was updated in 1815. Later editions, published after Cary's death, bear the Cruchley imprint. Unlike most antique maps, this map has an interesting and known provenance. It was used by the American politician Samuel Atkins eliot (1798 - 1862) on his 1821 european tour. At various points in his career, eliot, a Whig, served in the Massachusetts Senate, was the Mayor of Boston, and represented Massachusetts in the United States House of Representatives. eliot traveled to europe on the classic 'Grand Tour' in 1821. Sailing from Boston, he landed at the port of Liverpool, where he acquired this map at the shop of W. Robinson, Castle Street. He traveled throughout england and Scotland, where no doubt this map came in handy as his route is marked in pen, before embarking for the continent several months later. References: National Library of Australia, MAP Ra 25 Plate 9 (v. 1).
