No binding. 310 x 255 mm., early outline colour, light crease lower right corner, in good condition. A road map is from Laurie and Whittle's 'New Traveller's Companion'. The firm of Laurie and Whittle relied heavily on the plates of Robert Sayer acquired following his death in 1794. Often thought of as mere publishers Robert Laurie (1755-1836) was a noted craftsman. He was a talented mezzotint engraver who invented a method of mezzotint printing in colour, an achievement that won him an award from the Royal Society of Arts in 1776. In the early 1790s he entered the publishing business with James Whittle (1757-1818) as his partner. The acquisition of Sayer's stock catapulted them into the major league. In 1806 they published a road book entitled the 'Laurie and Whittle's New Traveller's Companion' which included road maps. They were compiled by Nathaniel Coltman who working for the Post Office was perfectly placed to produce them. Engraved by J. Bye, E. Jones, B. Smith and W. West they covered territory as far as the Isle of Wight and Scotland. The format was a change from the past which up to now had largely followed the strip map format devised by John Ogilby in 1675. Coltman produces here a clear map which covers larger areas for easier reference. The map is strictly functional concentrating just on roads and distances, the earlier use of nearby features such as churches and hills is omitted. It was a success with a number of editions following and alterations were constantly made to the plates to bring them up-to-date. In 1812 Robert Laurie retired and was replaced in the partnership by his son Richard Holmes Laurie and the firm changed its name to Whittle and Laurie.

No binding. Oblong quarto (230 x 295 mm.), later half red calf to style, preserving original paper boards with ornate printed panels, spine with gilt ruled compartments, each with central gilt floral design, gilt title. With finely engraved frontispiece title, typographic title, Advertisement, Contents, engraved Explanation in early colour and 48 engraved maps (West Riding in 2 sheets) all in fine early outline colour with wash borders, each accompanied by a leaf of descriptive text, some surface dirt to first general map, South Wales with light paper folds, otherwise in good condition. The majority of the plates for this atlas were first issued in the 'Universal Magazine' from 1791 to 1798 and are engraved by Benjamin Baker (1766-1841) who was particularly active through 1824 as an engraver for the Ordnance Survey. These early Surveys are highly prized for their detail. The publisher of the 'Universal Magazine' was William Bent. In 1804, the plates appeared in a rare atlas entitled 'Maps of the Several Counties and Shires in England' by William Darton (1755-1819) and Joseph Harvey (1764-1841). Then they were acquired by the firm of Laurie and Whittle. Often thought of as mere publishers, Robert Laurie (1755-1836) was a noted craftsman. He was a talented mezzotint engraver who invented a method of mezzotint printing in colour, an achievement that won him an award from the Royal Society of Arts in 1776. In the early 1790s he entered the publishing business with James Whittle (1757-1818) as his partner. The acquisition of Sayer's stock catapulted them into the major league. In 1806, they published a road book entitled 'Laurie and Whittle's New Traveller's Companion' which included road maps. It was originally thought that in the following year this work was published having just acquired the Baker plates of the English counties. The two were clearly meant to complement each other in their stock. Then in 2003 an example dated 1806 on the title page appeared at auction. It remains the only example traced. Three further maps were supplied including the general map dated 1801 by Laurie and Whittle, an apparently new plate of the Isle of Wight engraved by Baker dated 1806 and a general map of Yorkshire to complement those of the Ridings also dated 1806.The descriptions include a wealth of information including the population data gathered by the Government in 1801. An interesting note on the Explanation states 'The connection of the Turnpike Roads from one County to another, are shown by Reference Letters'. This feature was of course first introduced by John Cary in 1793. Provenance: Donald Hodson collection (1933-2016), carto-bibliographer. Beresiner (1983) p. 50; Carroll (1996) 53; Chubb (1927) 294; Worms & Baynton-Williams (2011).

Original uncoloured engraved map of the Cape Verde islands. Map dimensions 52 x 28.5 cm, overall sheet dimensions 54 x 38.5 cm. A bit toned overall and with some smudging to marings. A finely detailed chart of the Cape Verde Islands off the Coast of Africa, which appeared in a later edition of the West India Atlas. This sheet of sea charts details the Cape Verde Islands. First settled by the Portuguese in 1462, it soon became a popular haunt for pirates, including Sir Francis Drake in the 1580s. The sheet features with inset maps of Praya Bay, A View of the English Road, A View of Praya Bay and a group of recognition views. Sayer and Bennet based their work on charts by Jean-Baptiste Mannevillettes's Le Neptune Oriental (Paris, 1745).

No binding. Zustand: Very Good. 640 x 930 mm., in recent wash colour, with very wide margins, in good condition. This chart is found in examples of Laurie and Whittle's "Complete East India Pilot". It shows the extreme south western shore of Sumatra leading to the Straits of Sunda. Inset plans of Cawoor Bay, Pulo Pisang and Little Fortune Island with Billimbing Bay are all by Captain Joseph Huddart. Joseph Huddart (1741-1816) was a Captain in the East India Company as a hydrographer and civil engineer. This chart was one of many of his work which are found in Laurie and Whittle's "Complete East India Pilot" which was first published in 1798. NMM 379 no. 146.

Gaspar Strait Engraved chart on two sheets, joined. Chart of the navigational channel between the islands of Bangka and Belitung in the Java Sea. Showing the tracks of several English vessels from the 1780s. From an early edition of Laurie & Whittle's rare 'East India Pilot', and one of the first charts published after their purchase of Robert's Sayer's business. Laurie & Whittle's 'East India Pilot' was published as a practical guide to navigators aboard ships of the Royal Navy and East Indiamen, and often taken to sea, and this chart appears to be no exception. All variants of Laurie and Whittle's 'Oriental' pilots of eastern waters are scarce, and were published under several titles, each with a different complement of charts. Variants include: 'The Country Trade East-India Pilot, for the Navigation of the East-Indies and Oriental Seas, within the limits of the East-India Company', 'The Complete East-India Pilot, or Oriental Navigator', 'The East-India Pilot, or Oriental Navigator', and 'The Oriental Pilot; Or, East-India Directory' focusing on the most important charts used for the journey. The foundation of the partnership of Robert Laurie (17551836) and James Whittle (17571818) was the existing stock of Robert Sayer's printing plates, both for maps and atlases and also decorative prints. Laurie had originally apprenticed to Robert Sayer in 1770, and made free in 1777. He was a skilled artist, who exhibited at the Society of Artists from 1770, winning a silver palette for a drawing in 1770, and he was also an accomplished engraver of mezzotint portraits and produced views and other decorative items. In about 1792 he returned to the Sayer business and took it over from the ailing Sayer in 1794. Whittle was apprenticed into the Needlemakers' Company, evidently made free by 1792, and joined with Laurie to take over the Sayer business in 1794. Laurie retired in 1812. His son Richard Holmes Laurie replaced him in the partnership and, eventually, took over the firm after Whittle's death in 1818. Presumably under the influence of Richard Holmes Laurie, the partnership became noted as chartmakers and publishers, with the business existing to the current day as Imray, Laurie, Norie and Wilson. Provenance: Early annotations in pencil recording the true position of Gaspar Island, Middle Island, and one or two unrecorded shoals.
