33042 Carmarthenshire, John Speed 1611. Price: 29.00
CAERMARDEN BOTH SHYRE AND TOWNE DESCRIBED
The FIRST EDITION of this decorative 17th century map of the county published by John Sudbury and George Humble. Embellished with a title cartouche surmounted by the Royal Arms, compass rose. Arms of Wales and the scale within another cartouche. Inset town plan of Carmarthen. On verso is a description of the county in English with a list of towns and villages. 19 x 15 inches. Uncoloured. If you fancy trying your hand in map restoration this would be a worthwhile specimen to have a go with. The missing part of the map on the right hand side just effects the printed border and of course some text on verso. So it could be a lot worse.

Looking at Old Maps by John Booth
This is John Booth's second book that was published in 1979, two years after his book on Welsh Maps. My copy is the first edition in which is a loose sheet giving a guide to prices. The format is very similar with a write up on a cartographer and a full page example illustration opposite. Lots of useful information and a very good introductory book for the collector of county maps. Recommended. Again click on the Amazon link provided and treat yourself to a copy.

I have been buying and selling antique maps since the early 1960's during which time I opened a gallery in Watergate Street, Chester which was there 30 years, closing in 1998. I am now able to offer through my websites a personal service to map and print collectors.
