Beschreibung

Title page + blank + 4 page report + large folding plan of Milford Haven engraved by Thos Jefferys 1758. Overall text condition detached in 2 parts, the odd minor dirt, some dirt marks to last page, minor edge nicks, corner folding. Large fold-out plan made from 2 large pieces of paper and in very good condition, not mis-folded. This is a report removed from a bound volume of House of Parliament reports etc. on many many subjects during the year 1757. comprises page 405 410 inclusive, also a large unnumbered folding plan. 77 x 44cm ( 30 ¼ x 17 ¼ inches approx). Was published after December 1757, most likely January 1758 as map dated 1758. Presented to Parliament in February 1757, when the committee reported on petitions relating to plans for the fortifying and improvement of Milford Haven , and came after the Committee Report for improvement of Rye Harbour, and Dover Harbour. Not to be confused with later basic compilations usually in a smaller format & without the fold-out plan like the one published just after 1800. So this is a very rare item, found no other copy for sale Size: 28 x 44.5cm.approx. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 002918
