The Country Twenty-Two Miles Round London. Compiled from Actual Surveys, on a Scale of Half an Inch to a Mile.

Overall dimensions 59 x 58.5 cm, diameter 55.5 cm. Circular map of the environs of London, showing the extents from Ware down to Dorking and Tilbury across to Windsor. Full original colour in block and outline: the city shaded in dark red, the county shaded in different colours and parks and woodlands coloured in green. The five mile radius from St. Paul's marked out, after which thin concentric lines radiate out at one mile intervals up to border. A number of roads leading out of London shaded and their distances from the edges of city marked along route. The whole dissected into fifteen sections and backed onto linen. Minor creasing at some section edges. Small brown spot to upper left corner, otherwise an attractive example. The Wallis family firm moved to 42 Skinner Street in 1813. Edward Wallis entered into partnership with his father, John, in the same year. On John Wallis' demise in 1818 Edward assumed full control of the business. This an intermediate issue, Howgego notes editions with John Wallis' imprint up to 1802 and one subsequent edition with an attributed date of c. 1845. This example certainly published prior to the latter date as none of the railways are shown. Cf. Howgego, No. 176. This edition not listed by Boyle, cf 16 for the first state.…
