No binding. Zustand: Good. EXTREMELY RARE. 370 x 490 mm., in early outline colour, with very wide margins, with a couple of edge repairs, otherwise in very good condition. An example of the extremely rare fourth state of John Seller's map of Oxfordshire which is not recorded in Rodger who only records the first three. It is one of only six counties he produced folio maps of. The Hundreds are coloured and an extensive network of roads illustrated. These are listed above as are the market towns in a table. The twenty coats of arms of the colleges adorn the sides attractively held aloft by putti. The map is overlaid with a grid of four miles square numbered above and lettered in the left border. Along the bottom are the 'Distance in Miles from ye Meridian at London'.John Seller (c.1627-97) was born the son of Henry Sellers, a cord wayner, between 1627 and 1630 in Wapping, London. He was apprenticed to Edward Lowe who was presumably an instrument maker as this was the profession chosen by Seller. He appears to have been a Baptist at a time when Nonconformists were not popular. Following the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660, there were understandably several treasonable plots against him. In 1662 six men were arrested in one such plot led by Thomas Tonge, amongst them was John Seller. The trial was held in the Old Bailey in December. The published details show that Seller was clearly not involved although he was a friend of one of the men and had been seen talking to another. Despite the evidence he was convicted and sentenced. Seller and one James Hind escaped execution, the others being hanged on 22 December. Seller remained in Newgate Prison until the spring of 1663. He was granted release on bail and eventually granted a pardon. Seller's main income derived from instrument making and navigation, and he was even interested in their use. He wrote 'Praxis Nautica or Practical Navigation' in 1669, dealing with all aspects of navigation such as instruments, mathematics, almanacs and tables. It was an immediate success and was issued in numerous further editions. It was at this time he turned to publishing maps, at first specialising in sea charts for which he saw a domestic market. Expanding into topographical maps he entered all sorts of projects but lacked the commercial ability to carry them through successfully. In the 'London Gazette' for November 1679 John Seller along with John Oliver the surveyor and the engraver Richard Palmer announced their intention to publish a folio English County atlas to be titled 'Atlas Anglicanus'. At the beginning of the following year, they announced in the 'Term Catalogues' that maps of Middlesex, Surrey, and Hertfordshire were available and that Kent was underway. Unfortunately, only two more counties were produced, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. The project languished until the partnership broke up in 1693 when the maps were sold to Philip Lea.Philip Lea would include them in some examples of his Christopher Saxton atlas entitled 'The Shires of England and Wales' available from c.1693. For this issue Seller's imprint lower left was erased and the imprint of Philip Lea is added along with the roads. Following the death of Philip Lea on 25 February 1700, his widow Anne continued the business. Although it is recorded that she sold some copper plates to George Willdey shortly after 1715, those belonging to the Saxton atlas were not amongst them. The date of her death is unknown but on 5 August 1730 the 'Daily Journal' carried an advertisement announcing the sale by auction of 'all the Copper Plates belonging to the Estate of Mrs. Anne Lea, deceased . with all the County Maps of Great Britain and Ireland'. The plate for Oxfordshire along with others was acquired by Thomas and John Bowles whose imprint replaced that of Lea, the latter recording his address as Mercers Hall in Cheapside, along with the date 1730. In 1733 he moved to the Black Horse in Cornhill when the imprint of this map was altered.

See the description of Caine's political views in his entry in the Oxford DNB. He began as a communist, but became a Christian Socialist, and a supporter of the Liberal Party on the mainland of Britain (he was a member of the Isle of Man House of Keys from 1901 to 1908) and a follower of the Church of England. The present item would appear to relate to the 'impassioned propaganda' that Caine published in the Daily Telegraph from September 1914 (ODNB). It is 1p, 4to. It is in fair condition, lightly aged and discoloured, with minor traces of mount on the blank reverse, and with central horizontal and vertical folds. Written in Caine's distinctive tiny hand. A column on the left-hand side of the page is headed 'Downfall of a Nation / Please make the following corrections', while the right-hand side carries 'With Sir Hall Caine's compts'. There are four corrections, to be made to the 'Second', 'Fifth', '6th' and 'Concluding Article': 'Second Article / 2nd. Col: 4th paragraph / Read Provisional Government instead of Provincial / Fifth Article / 1st Col 4th paragraph / Spell / Vladimir / Kalouga / Ukraina / 6th Article / 2nd Col / 22 line / Read - / The American plan was to take a million children & provide for them for one month, & the British plan was to provide for two hundred thousand on the Border etc / Concluding Article / last col / 3rd paragraph / read / Constituent Assembly / instead of Constitutional'.
