No binding. 120 x 90 mm., early outline colour. In good condition. This charming map of Cheshire orientated with east at the top is from William Green's 'Picture of England' printed in 1804. It was first issued in Robert Butters' 'An Atlas of England' the previous year. Butters (fl. 1785-1808) was a printer in London and this is his only atlas work although he was involved in the 'Political Magazine'. The 'Picture of England' was published by John Hatchard (1769-1849), founder of the bookshop which still bears his name. Refer Carroll 58; Whittaker 292.

No binding. Condition: Fair. ONE OF ONLY THREE KNOWN BOUND COLLECTIONS OF FIRST STATE MAPS. Oblong folio (335 x 360 mm.), full contemporary calf, with very unusual ornate early decoration affixed and now worn, later endpapers, uncut. With 40 engraved maps of the English counties, traces of old folds, with manuscript index to the front free original endpaper, some trimmed with loss of imprint, frail edges to many, ink notations to the margins of some maps, those of Dorset, Essex Hertfordshire bound upside down, otherwise in good condition. The 'Political Magazine' began publishing in January 1780 at the hands of John Bew, bookseller and publisher of 29 Paternoster Row, London. From the beginning, Bew was keen to continue the tradition of eighteenth century Magazines of including maps. As an engraver, he employed John Lodge ((fl.1755-96) who had previously worked for the 'Gentleman's Magazine'. In April 1782, a map of Ireland was published, one of Scotland in October 1784 and finally England and Wales in November 1785. John Murray (1737-93) joined Bew in partnership in February 1785 and from April of that year was in sole control. January 1787 saw the publication of Middlesex, followed by the Isle of Wight and Kent by May. By then a plan had clearly formulated to publish a full series of the county maps as from the following issue of June 1787 the county maps were issued in alphabetical order virtually monthly. In October 1789 Robert Butters (fl.1772-1809) of Fleet Street took control and continued the work with the publication of Oxford through completion in December 1790 with that of Yorkshire. It was to be the very last issue of the work.The maps all bear reference to the 'Political Magazine' and the date of issue in the upper right corner. The name of Lodge as engraver appears lower right, along with the publisher's imprint below and a further date. The imprints on the maps reflect the change of ownership with the counties from Oxford bearing the imprint of Butters instead of Murray. Traces of old folds indicate this example is made up of magazine issues of the maps. The three general maps published some time before the counties were started are omitted as are those of the Isle of Man and Isle of Wight. The collection was later issued as a very rare atlas and is always found in a state where all imprints are removed from the plates. None of the known examples provide any publisher information, all lack a title page but one or two examples bear a title label affixed to the upper board reading 'Atlas of Great Britain and Ireland'. There is no date, although Fordham recorded an example with a watermark date of 1795 present. None could be found dated here and two or three different watermarks appear. The references to Cluer Dicey in some carto-bibliographies refer to a copy of the last composite Henry Overton atlas held at Pembroke College, Cambridge. In this example, several of the Lodge plates are pasted in, which of course provides no further bibliographical information to us. It is unlikely to be John Lodge who was most likely employed to engrave the plates for the publisher's and who died in 1796. The most likely candidate for issuing the bound collections is Robert Butters. He was the final publisher of the 'Political Magazine' and therefore the most likely owner of the plates at this point. To date I have only become aware of three known collections of maps in their first state. The Burden Collection example contains the 40 English counties as does this one. The Clifford Stephenson example now in a private collection, contains 37 counties. The original front free endpaper bears the trade card of Wittenoom and Duessell, 'Tea-Dealers and Grocers', to date I have not been able to unearth anything about this company. The manuscript index next to it bears a corrected title 'Counties of England Published from the year 1787 to the year 1790'. Of the notations on the maps that of Surrey provides some evidence. A reference is made to the death of the Duchess.

The name of Lodge as engraver appears lower right along with the publisher's imprint below and a further date. The imprints on the maps reflect the change of ownership with the counties. The ensuing maps are all made up from the second state in which the imprints are removed. Traces of old folds on the earlier maps indicate this example is made up of magazine issues of the maps.
