Sin Encuadernar. Zustand: Bueno. [English description below] Raro mapa de San Juan, Puerto Rico, publicado por Sayer y Bennett en 1794. Esta es la segunda edición del mapa, siendo la primera publicada por Jefferys en 1762 (con el número de página 90; nuestra edición, en cambio, presenta el número 40 en la esquina superior derecha). Se trata de uno de los primeros planos existentes de la capital de la isla. El mapa se centra en el sistema de defensa del puerto, en una época en la que la isla era disputada entre España y el Reino Unido. Muestra la ciudad amurallada de San Juan con sus diferentes entradas: Santiago, San Juan y San Justo. Al norte limita con el Fuerte de la Perla y al oeste con el Castillo San Felipe del Morro. Más al oeste, cerca de la Isla de Cabra, se encuentra el Fortín San Juan de la Cruz, también conocido como El Cañuelo. Al otro lado de la ciudad se erige el Fuerte San Antonio, protegiendo el Puente de San Antonio, que conectaba San Juan con la Isla de Puerto Rico. El mapa se encuentra en excelente estado de conservación, con una liviana descoloración del papel en la parte inferior derecha, fuera del grabado. ---------------------------------------- Rare chart of San Juan, Puerto Rico, published by Sayer and Bennett in 1794. This is the second edition of that map, with the first edition published by Jefferys in 1762 (bearing page number 90). Our edition bears page number 40 in the upper right corner. It is one of the earliest obtainable plans of the capital of the island. The chart focuses on the defense system of the port, at a time when the island was heavily disputed between Spain and the United Kingdom. It shows the walled city of San Juan, with its different gates (Santiago, San Juan, and San Justo). It is bordered north by the Fuerte de la Perla and west by Castillo San Felipe del Morro. Further west, close to the Isla de Cabra, can be seen the fort Fortín San Juan de la Cruz, also called El Cañuelo. On the other side of the city is Fort San Antonio, protecting the Puente de San Antonio, which linked San Juan with the Island of Puerto Rico. Excellent condition, with a slight discoloration of the paper in the lower right margin, not affecting the image. ENG. Excellent.

No binding. 540 x 370 mm., in fine early wash colour and in good condition. Robert Sayer was active from 1745 and was joined in partnership by John Bennett in 1774. Their early works were derived from maps acquired from the late Thomas Jefferys. One of their most significant productions was the 'East India Pilot' which was advertised in 1775 as being 'in great forwardness for publication'. This chart of the Nicobar Islands bears an inset of "A particular Plan of the Harbour Comprized between the Isles Nacaveri, Souri & Tricutte". Shirley BL Atlases M.Say-3a no. 62; NMM 417 no. 29.

Original uncoloured mezzotint laid down on to card. Print dimensions 25 x 35 cm. A very good example. The green is the old centre of Paddington, where an ancient manor house stood until 1824. Today all that is left of the affluent village built around the green are an early-19th century church and two 18th-century homes on the east side of the green. From a series of views first published by R. Sayer and J. Bennett in 1783.

Titlepage, 2pp. dedication to "Gov. Pownall," 2pp. "Advertisement," 1p. "List of maps"; and six folding engraved maps, all hand-colored in outline. The "Holster Atlas" was issued at the suggestion of Gov. George Pownall and included the "maps that the British high command regarded as providing essential topographical information in the most convenient form" (Schwartz & Ehrenberg). This collection of maps was published by Sayer and Bennet at the beginning of the Revolution for the use of British officers. "Surveys and Topographical Charts being fit only for a Library, such maps as an Officer may take with him into the Field have been much wanted. The following Collection forms a Portable Atlas of North America, calculated in its Bulk and Price to suit the Pockets of Officers of all Ranks" (Advertisement). Although the publishers claimed the atlas would fit into an officer's pocket, it was more usually carried in a holster and thus gained its nickname. The six maps are as follows: 1) Dunn, Samuel: North America, as divided amongst the European Powers. London: printed for Robt. Sayer, Jan. 10, 1774. Engraved map, handcolored in outline, 13¾ x 19 inches. 2) Dunn, Samuel A Compleat Map of the West Indies, containing the coasts of Florida, Louisiana, New Spain and Terra Firma: with all the islands. London: Robt. Sayer, Jan. 10, 1774. Engraved map, handcolored in outline (14 x 19 inches). 3) A General Map of the Northern British Colonbies in America.

Also issued as the first separately published map of Lake Champlain, this excellent detailed chart was based on a survey made during the French and Indian War, but not published until the Revolution. The map was issued in two states and is included here in its appropriate (and preferred) second state, illustrating the very first battle fought by the U.S. Navy: the Battle of Valcour Island, which transpired near present-day Plattsburgh, New York. Also included is an inset illustrating America's first naval battle, in which General Benedict Arnold, though forced back down the lake, was able to delay the British attempt to descend to the Hudson for that year. No mention, of course, is made of Ethan Allen's taking of Fort Ticonderoga in 1775. An important collection of Revolutionary-era American maps.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. London: Sayer & Bennett, 1776. 8vo, contemporary marbled boards rebacked with calf gilt with maroon calf title label; title, pp. vi-viii (dedication letter and Advertisement + list of maps; with six folding engraved maps with original outline colour, as called for. A very fine example of the rare 'Holster Atlas', ''calculated in its bulk to suit the pockets of Officers of all Ranks''. The atlas was created on the suggestion of Sir George Pownall, Governor of Massachusetts 1757-60, to whom it is dedicated; two of the maps are based on his work. The six maps it contains are regarded as particularly important to the mapping of the American Revolution because they represent the knowledge of the terrain the British based their strategies on. The final map is the first separately published map of Lake Champlain. The maps are: ''North America, as Divided amongst the European Powers. By Samuel Dunn, Mathematician''; ''A Compleat Map of the West Indies, containing the Coasts of Florida, Louisiana, New Spain, and Terra Firma: with all the Islands. By Samuel Dunn, Mathematician ''; ''A General Map of the Middle British Colonies, in America. Containing Virginia, Maryland, the Delaware Counties, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. With the addition of New York, and of the Greatest Part of New England, as also of the Bordering Parts of the Province of Quebec, improved from several Surveys made after the late War, and Corrected from Governor Pownall's Late Map 1776''; ''A General Map of the Southern British Colonies, in America.

Very good. One wormhole, mended. Else excellent with generous margins and a bold strike. Size 24.5 x 19.5 Inches. This is a 1775 Sayer and Bennett chart of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, compiled from an array of surveys recorded over the preceding 25 years, including the 1763-5 surveys of Captain James Cook. A Closer Look The chart covers the waters from the mouth of the St. Lawrence River in the northwest to the Strait of Belle-Isle in the northeast, and its southeastern opening into the Atlantic Ocean. It thus depicts the southern coast of Quebec from Sept-îles to Red Bay in Labrador and the west coast of Newfoundland from Green Island to the vicinity of Rencontre West. The west shores of the gulf are charted from Grande-Vallée to Cape Breton Island, detailing Chaleur Bay and the peninsula of Nova Scotia as far around as Beaver Harbour. Within the gulf are charted Anticosti Island, Prince Edward Island (here named Island of Saint John), and Cap-aux Meules (named Magdalen Islands on the chart). The chart is replete with depth soundings, shallows, fishing banks, and navigational notes. Two engraved ships illustrate the typical French routes entering and leaving the St. Lawrence River. The Sources The chart is the result of an initiative by the British Admiralty to better comprehend the coasts and waters that were awarded to Great Britain by the 1763 Treaty of Paris, following the conclusion of the French and Indian War (1754 - 1763). James Cook was promptly sent to survey these waters in April 1763, just two months after the treaty signing - although he already had some familiarity with the region, having taken part in operations against the French there during the war. Sayer and Bennett's map added Cook's surveys - mainly of Labrador and Newfoundland - to an array of preexisting British and French sources, both contemporary and prior to the French and Indian War. Publication History and Census This chart was engraved in 1775 for inclusion in Sayer and Bennett's North American Pilot , the production of which had passed to them following the death of Thomas Jefferys in 1771. The chart appeared in subsequent editions of that work, as well as copies of the American Atlas (later editions of this can be distinguished by the addition of 'Pl. No' in the upper right corner accompanying the Roman numeral appearing here; the earliest are identical to that found in the Pilot . The chart is well represented in institutional collections.
