We have a constantly expanding stock of antique maps, all original, no reproductions, mostly from the 1600s to the 1800s. Many of these maps would have been issued as part of an atlas and often have a centre-fold, but some were issued separately. Sometimes those issued in an atlas are hard to date precisely once they have been removed, and opinions often differ, but we try to be as accurate as possible. All those listed here are original, printed on paper, some may have been hand-coloured after printing, some may have been coloured more recently - it's not always easy to tell, some may be mounted, but we always mention this in the description. We also have a lot of framed and glazed maps hanging on the walls of the shop. Feel free to email if you have any questions, or to enquire about any map.

13290. Abraham Ortelius.

We believe this to be the second state of the map from 1583 or later (see Moreland & Bannister p.200-203), althought the various issues over the years are notoriously difficult to differentiate. The French coastline of Brittany, Normandy and Picardy is well charted on the left hand side, and the oceans abound with sailing vessels. Ortelius' map of Great Britain was based largely on his friend Mercator's map, and was published in his "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" from 1570 onwards, which was regarded as the first 'modern ' atlas. The map is turned to show north at the right, enabling better use of the printed paper-potentially prophesying the UK on its back after Brexit? Creased on centrefold, otherwise very good indeed. 1000.00 pounds.

13291. Joan Blaeu. DENBIGIENSIS COMITATUS ET COMITATUS FLINTENSIS; DENBIGH ET FLINTSHIRE. Circa 1650, 500mm x 390mm, hand-coloured, mounted, unframed. The first edition of this map, with Dutch text on verso. John Blaeu, eldest son and business successor of Willem Blaeu, was responsible for the publication of a country atlas of England and Wales in 1645. It appeared as volume four of the Latin edition of the "Atlas Novus". The Dutch Blaeu family was the most highly esteemed and prolific publisher of the seventeenth century. The father established the business in 1599 (he was a scientific instrument maker) and published the first one volume atlas of the world in 1630. The effects and quality of production of the Blaeu output has remained impressive to this day. Slightly creased, but generally very good. 200.00 pounds.
