1860Best.-Nr. 48522Antigua but actually Philadelphia: R.B. Eldridge & Co. ca.1860. Interesting Map of the Island of Antigua An unusual lithographic edition of Norie's 1827 revision of this handsome chart lithographed by Wagner & McGuigan in Philadelphia. A statement in the cartouche reads: "Presented by R.B. Eldridge Antigua to Captain Andrew Tyler." The captain's name is accomplished in manuscript. R.B. Eldridge is not listed in Tooley's DICTIONARY OF MAPMAKERS and appears to be unrelated to publisher of charts George Eldridge. It seems most likely that he was rather an Antigua merchant who commissioned a reprint of the chart for complimentary distribution to sea captains. A handsome piece. Lithographic sheet map 20½ x 26½ inches. Backed with contemporary blue paper. Light foxing and toning. A few small tears in margins. Very good. unknown
