A New and Accurat Map of the World Drawne According to ye Truest Descriptions Lastest Discoveries & Best Observations yt Have Beene Made by English or Strangers . This desirable and beautiful double-hemispheric world map carries the imprint of George Humble. The map is dated 1626 but it was known to be published through 1632 with this imprint. This map is based on William Grent`s rare, separately issued map of 1625 (Shirley #313). It is considered one of the earliest published world maps to be printed in English, and is the first atlas map to show the cartographic curiosity of California as an island, which persisted for nearly 100 years. It was also one of the first to show the settlement of New Plymouth. The coastline in North America is blank east of California and swings wildly to the west in the northern regions of Canada and Alaska. The Straits of Magellan are inaccurately shown and Tierra de Fuego is left open to the west. The Southerne Unknowne Land shows the large conjectured continent covering much of the southern hemisphere. The map is beautifully engraved and highly detailed throughout. The engraver is unknown but Shirley acknowledges it was most likely Abraham Goos. This highly decorative production is surrounded by two celestial hemispheres, figural allegorical representations of Water, Earth, Air and Fire, plus portraits of Ferdinand Magellan, Oliver vander Noort, Thomas Cavendish and Sir Francis Drake. The corners are filled with an astronomical table, an armillary sphere, and eclipses of the sun and moon. With several lengthy notes including comments on the South Pole and the Straits of Magellan, Sir Francis Drake and others. Related English text on verso is ""The generall Description of the World."" Shirley says this map was not as widely disseminated as those from contemporary Dutch cartographers and was uncommon outside the UK. Consequently its ""rarity value"" continues to increase.See also lot 772 for Rodney Shirley`s excellent reference work on world maps, which discusses this map. A fine impression with attractive old color in the oceans and later coloring in the decorative elements. There is a short, professionally repaired crack near Magellan`s portrait, and additional professional repairs to some small chips and tears confined to the blank margins. 20.4"" W x 15.5"" H . Speed, John . 1626

[On 4 Sheets] Tabula Itineraria ex Illustri Peutingerorum Bibliotheca quae Augustae Vindelicorum BeneficioÂ… . Four sheets making up the famous Peutinger Table, or a Roman road map of the world. The original parchment document was found by Konrad Celtes in a library in Augsburg, came into the hands of Konrad Peutinger and later went to his relative Mark Welser who was the first to publish a copy of it in 1591 at Aldus Manutius in Venice. These maps, based on the original manuscript, were first popularized by Ortelius in 1598 and became an important part of his great historical atlas. Jansson`s version is nearly identical to that of Ortelius. These decorative maps, in a sequence of four plates, each with two strip maps, depict the imperial roads and posts within the Roman Empire throughout Europe, North Africa and Asia as far as Toprobana (Sri Lanka). Size given is for each plate. Blank versos, published between 1652-84.See also lot 772 for Rodney Shirley`s excellent reference work on world maps, which discusses this map.

Map Illustrating the Plan of the Defences of the Western & North-Western Frontier, as proposed by Charles Gratiot, in his report of Oct. 31, 1837 . This map is from the series of maps that illustrated the factious Congressional debate over the nature of the frontier defenses in the region between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains. Issued under the direction of Col. J. J. Abert by W. Hood, the map depicts the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana and the Indian nations bordering them to the west. It shows the locations of many military forts and outposts from Ft. Jessup to Ft. Snelling with notations throughout concerning lands ceded by several Indian nations with the dates of the treaties. The threat posed by hostile Indians, whose numbers greatly exceeded those of the area`s settlers, resulted in a protracted Congressional debate concerning the defenses required along the frontier. GratiotÂ’s defense plan uses color to trace the common roads and rivers. A table at lower left notes the distances between forts and the equivalent ""days of march"" at 15 miles per day. This is the later printing (ca. 1860) issued in the American State Papers. Issued folding with just a hint of offsetting and a binding trim at lower right. 15"" W x 21"" H .

Geological and Geographical Atlas of Colorado and Portions of Adjacent Territory .

Colton`s Rail-Road and Military Map of the United States Mexico, the West Indies &c. This early, rare separately issued map of the United States and Mexico is based upon the 1859 Butterfield/Colton ""Map of the United States and Mexico."" ""Military"" has been added to the title, but the states are not color-coded to indicate Free or Slave State as was the case with the 1862 Colton edition. This suggests the map was issued just prior to the outbreak of the Civil War. Geographically, the western territories are shown in evolving configurations with Arizona shown along the bottom of New Mexico Territory. Washington is depicted in an inverted ""L"" shape and Nebraska has a long panhandle. To NebraskaÂ’s north is a huge Dakota Territory encompassing present-day Montana, but its name is confined to east of the Missouri River. A large inset at lower left, ColtonÂ’s Map of the Americas, Africa and a Portion of EuropeÂ…, depicts the routes of explorers. Statistics indicating free and slave population by state are shown in the Pacific (not on the Butterfield map) and a table of distances occupies the Atlantic. Surrounded by an elaborate floral border. Issued folding and backed with Japanese tissue to reinforce and repair numerous small fold separations resulting in very minor loss of image and a 11"" tear at left that extends from the census statistics north to Utah. Light toning along the folds and a few spots of foxing. 38.7"" W x 32.3"" H . Colton, Joseph Hutchins . 1861
