About this Item
A fine and detailed city plan with eight vignettes. "John Tallis published an extremely attractive series of town plans, delicately engraved on steel by John Rapkin and others. Each plan has a number of vignettes of buildings (taken from Dugdale's Curiosities) and an ornate border. The composition of the series was very significant since it included the new industrial towns of the North and Midlands which were growing rapidly in the nineteenth century." Smith, Antique maps of the British Isles Size: 490 x 340 mm. Steel engraving. Original colour. Very good condition, slightly darkened at edges, central fold slightly creased. Seller Inventory # 52859
