About the Item

Antique map titled 'A Map of the Dutchy of Holstein, with the Territories of the Imperial Towns Hamburg & Lubek, Also The Bishoprick of Eutin, Laid down from Fischer's Map (..)'. Scarce regional map of Northern Germany, focused on the Duchy of Holstein and towns of Hamburg and Lubeck. Beautifully engraved to show fortified towns, principal towns, market towns, castles, noblemen's seats, farms, villages, windmills, dykes and topography. Source unknown, to be determined. Artists and Engravers: James Wyld (1812–1887) was a British geographer and map-seller, best known for Wyld's Great Globe.

Wyld maintained the high standard of graphic and factual excellence that had been established by his predecessor and his maps are among the finest published in the early nineteenth century.

  • Antique 18th Century Map of the Province of Pensilvania 'Pennsylvania State'
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    A fine antique of the colony of Pennsylvania. Noted at the top of the sheet as a 'Map of the province of Pensilvania'. This undated and anonymous map is thought to be from the Gentleman's Magazine, London, circa 1775, although the general appearance could date it to the 1760's. The southern boundary reflects the Mason-Dixon survey (1768), the western boundary is placed just west of Pittsburgh, and the northern boundary is not marked. The map has a number of reference points that likely refer to companion text and appear to be connected to boundaries. The western and southern boundaries are marked Q, R, S, for example. A diagonal line runs from the Susquehanna R to the Lake Erie P. A broken line marked by many letters A, B, N, O, etc., appears in the east. There are no latitude or longitude markings, blank verso. Framed in a shaped contemporary gilt wooden frame and matted under a cream colored matte. Bearing an old Graham Arader Gallery...
