Hand coloured map of Montgomery County in Wales. This map was originally published in Camden's Britannia which was the first in which each county was printed on a separate sheet. The first issue of the series was in 1607 (with Latin text at verso) with two editions in 1610 and 1637. The later two had not text on the back and plate numbers may be found on the 1637 issue. Toning notwithstanding, a lovely example with wide margins remaining in an elegant black enamel and gilt frame. Light, even toning, else bright and clean. Hand coloured map. Approximately 15x13" overall, image is 10.5x12.5".
