Hondius/Le Clerc, 1633 Orbis Terrae Novissima Descriptio ""This is the first of two world maps engraved by Jodocus Hondius for Parisian publisher Jean Le Clerc. The map is based on Rumold Mercator`s double-hemisphere map from 1587 (see Shirley #157), which in turn was based on his father`s great world map of 1569. The North Pole is depicted as a landmass surrounding a sea from which four rivers radiate and there is a well depicted Northwest Passage. There is a huge Terra Australis, and the lands of Maletur and Beach (from the travel account of Marco Polo) are noted along the coast in the vicinity of present-day Australia with a large island labeled Iava Minor located in the same region. Japan is shown in a kite-shaped configuration, with the fictitious Satyrorum insule (Satyr`s Island) shown above. Hondius updated Mercator`s map by eliminating the bulge in the southwest coast of South America and adding the islands of Queen Elizabeth at the southern tip. In addition, Hondius elongated New Guinea and added several islands to its east. The hemispheres are surrounded by an elaborate decorative border with an armillary sphere and 32-point compass rose tucked between the hemispheres. Hondius has balanced the title at top with one of his favorite quotations from the Psalms at bottom. The composition is completed with several diagrams in the corners, including two wind roses with the wind names in Dutch and Italian, a diagram of the phases of the moon, and a final diagram of the climatic zones. Le Clerc`s map was issued both separately and in editions of Mercator-Hondius atlases and Le Clerc`s own atlas (Theatre Geographique du Royaume de France). This is the third state, dated 1633, with the coastline of Terra Australis partially erased and without the line of small islands between New Guinea and South America. Blank verso."" 19.9"" W x 12.9"" H Nice impression and color on watermarked paper with good margins and faint damp stains in blank margins, just entering map border at far right and left.

Blaeu, Willem 1640 Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica ac Hydrographica Tabula ""A magnificent map featuring a carte-a-figures border with allegorical representations of the sun, the moon, the five known planets, the four elements and the four seasons. Along the bottom are vignettes showing the seven wonders of the world: the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Colossus straddling the harbor at Rhodes, the Pyramids, the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus at Cairo, the Temple of Diana, the Statue of Jupiter and the lighthouse at Alexandria. Josua van Ende engraved this map, reducing it from Blaeu`s 1605 wall map for inclusion in atlases. Petrus Plancius` world map of 1592 was the main source of geographical information. The map is shown on Mercator`s projection with a massive Southern Continent attached to New Guinea, with the coastal names of Beach and Psittacorum regio noted from Marco Polo`s travel memoirs. North America has the westward bulge characteristic of the time, with the Strait of Anian noted. Korea is shown as an island and Japan is in a kite-like shape. The map itself is richly decorated with cartouches, sea battles, monsters and compass roses. Fourth state with Tierra del Fuego shown as an island and the date omitted from the lower cartouche on the right.

Hondius/Mariette, 1642 Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica ac Hydpographica Tabula The Hondius world map of 1617 was the prototype for a series of maps by French publishers who combined Hondius` geographical information with the more scientific border decorations from Boisseau`s map of 1636. The map depicts the discovery of the Le Maire Strait at the tip of South America. In North America, the St. Lawrence River runs nearly the entire width of the continent, terminating in a large lake not far from the infamous Civolo 7 citta (7 cities of Cibola). Hudson Bay is depicted after the work of Gerritsz. In Asia, Korea is shown as an island, the northern coast of New Guinea is more properly located and there is a large Terra Australis Incognita with Boach named in the region of the Australian continent. The surrounding engravings include a pair of celestial charts, circular diagrams containing the compass points, the names of the winds, the climatic zones, the heavenly orbits and a thirty-year calendar. The map is richly adorned with a variety of decorations including three cartouches, two featuring native figures, numerous sailing ships, sea monsters, flying fish and a depiction of Neptune. This is the first state with Mariette`s imprint. Although dated 1642, this was likely published in the 1653 edition of Mariette`s Theatre Geographique de France. 22"" W x 15"" H A fine impression, issued folding and now flattened on watermarked paper with light soiling.

The globe is supported by a full graduated brass meridian and has a very ornate and detailed horizon ring that shows compass directions, days and months of the year, zodiac signs, and degrees of amplitude and azimuth. It is raised on a mahogany stand with three legs. The globe is composed of 12 hand colored gores in shades of olive and cream. Complete with brass hour ring at the North Pole and a large analemma in the Pacific Ocean. Total height is 24 inches. The globe shows excellent detail of the voyages of many famous navigators including Cook, Vancouver, La Perouse and Pickergill. Geographically, in North America the United States is confined to east of the Mississippi River and the west shows very little detail. The southern half of Africa is labeled as """"Unknown Parts"""". A circular title cartouche reads """"Cary`s/New/Terrestrial Globe/Delineated/From the best Authorities extant;/Exhibiting the Tracks of/Captain Cook,/and the New Discoveries made by him/ and other Circumnavigators./London.""""

Moll, Herman 1701 The English Empire in America, Newfound-Land, Canada, Hudson`s Bay. &c. in Plano This fascinating map of English possessions in North America stretches from Cuba to the southern tip of Greenland. There is good detail throughout the eastern seaboard, with many rivers named and important settlements and cities such as Jamestown, Plymouth, Boston, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Charleston located.

A compass rose capped with a fleur-de-lys and radiating rhumb lines adorns the Atlantic, referred to here as the Sea of the English Empire. Moll`s System of Geography was essentially a larger version of Thesaurus Geographicus of 1695. The additional maps included in System of Geography were stamped ""NEW,"" as seen here below the title cartouche.

Bellin, Jacques Nicolas 1756 Plan du Port et Ville de Louisbourg dans l`Isle Royale This is the second state of this plan of Louisbourg, the French fortified settlement on Cape Breton Island. War broke out between France and England in 1744, and a large number of maps were produced to describe the areas involved. The French lost Louisbourg to a determined British army, but the treaty of Aix-la-Chappelle returned Louisbourg to the French in 1748. By 1758 Louisbourg was once again besieged by the British, and in 1760 the fortress was leveled. Published only four years prior to its destruction, the plan shows the harbor of Louisbourg in the southeast portion of the island in great detail. A large compass rose topped with a fleur-de-lis in the harbor orients the map with the north to the upper right corner. The German title appears below: Grundriss des Hafens und der Stadt Louisbourg oder Ludwigsburg auf der Koenigs-Insel. 11.1"" W x 7.6"" H Just a hint of soiling in blank margins.

It shows early settlements, forts, Indian villages, and tribal territory. The colonies have boundaries extending past the map`s western border. Various treaty and charter boundaries are shown. Earl Granville`s Property stretches from the Atlantic west to beyond the Mississippi River. In Florida, a line from Fort St. George to St. Mark delineates the Limits Stipulated in 1738 and below, nearly to Cape Canaveral, are the Bounds of Carolina by Charter of 1665.

Hondius, Jodocus 1619 Virginiae Item et Floridae Americae Provinciarum, Nova Descriptio This stunning map was compiled from two of the most important source maps of the early colonial period: John White`s Virginia and Jacques le Moyne`s Florida. Hondius` map became the prototype map of the region for the first half of the 17th century and continued to influence the cartography of the region until the middle of the 18th century. Largely due to the enormous success of Hondius` Atlas, Le Moyne`s erroneous depiction of a large inland lake (Lacus aquae dulcis) from which the R. de May (St. John`s River) flows in a southeasterly direction was popularized. Chesapeake Bay, here called Chesepioock Sinus, and the area south towards C.S. Romano Hispanis are shown in their White delineations. The Indian villages of Paquiwok, Croatoan, and Wococon are named in the Outer Banks and several others along the Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds. The map is extensively decorated with depictions of Indian villages incorporated in the title cartouche, a Floridian king and queen and Virginian natives in a canoe taken from De Bry, wildlife including a wild turkey, ships, sea monsters and a superb compass rose.

Gibson, John 1763 A Map of the New Governments, of East & West Florida This map was published in November 1763 just a few weeks after the British acquisition of Florida at the conclusion of the French and Indian War. The region was divided into two British provinces, East and West Florida. The division was along the Apalachicola River, the boundary line for the Royal Proclamation of 1763 that extended from the Ohio River to Florida along the watershed of the Appalachian and Allegheny Mountains. The Proclamation was designed to reduce confrontation between Indians and colonists by outlawing English settlement west of the line. East Florida encompassed primarily the Florida peninsula; West Florida included the Gulf Coast region from the Apalachicola River to the Mississippi River south of 31° of latitude. The map locates many settlements, swamps, and rivers. Southern Florida is split by many waterways, giving the appearance that it`s made up of numerous small islands. A large inset, Plan of the Harbour and Settlement of Pensacola, provides good detail of the Bay of Sta. Maria Galres (now Pensacola Bay) complete with soundings and a compass rose. 9.9"" W x 7.6"" H Issued folding, now pressed flat, with some faint soiling.
