About the Item
A fine antique 18th century map of the North American seaboard.
Entitled "A New Map of North America from the Latest Discoveries 1763".
By the Cartographer/Engraver - John Spilsbury, 1739-1769.
Depicting the British Colonies in North America at the end of the French & Indian War.
The claims of the Carolinas, Virginia, and New England have extend westward towards the Pacific Ocean. Georgia is now shown along with many Indian regions, and the Earl of Granville's line and the Florida/Carolina border is also shown.
Publisher: London magazine, v. 32, 1763.
Housed in a thin gilt wooden Neoclassical frame, triple matted, and housed behind what we believe is UV protective plexiglass.
There is a tear, staining and some apparent loss to the western latitudinal guide.
Simply a great historical map that predates the United States!
Date:
1763

View AllAntique 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.
