Sir H. George Fordham
This map comes from an atlas which was once in the library of the renowned carto-bibliographer Sir Herbert George Fordham (1854 - 1929).

Born on 9th May 1854 at Odsey, a manor on the borders of Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire sold to the Fordham family in 1793 by the 5th Duke of Devonshire. The flyleaf of the atlas was signed H.George Fordham, Odsey, 1925. Further reading: Map Collectors' Circle No. 51: Sir H.George Fordham Carto-bibliographer by J. M. Henshall.

A strip road map of the route from Manchester to London, A plan of Manchester and Salford in 1650 and A map of the country around Manchester. 36 1/4 x 41 1/2 inches. This is a folded map so has the original fold creases. Specimens vary a lot in condition depending how many times they have been unfolded and handled.

Plus a series of staple size binding holes running down the centre fold where there is some loss of engraved area. Otherwise a very nice clean specimen which would make a wonderful and interesting wall decoration when framed. On the verso is an ink written not by the owner in 1811 relating why Mad Dogs Court is mentioned as near Travis Yard or Crow Alley.
