ref. 11764London: John Sudbury and George Humble. 1610-12. No binding. Good. FIRST EDITION. 385 x 515 mm. recent outline and wash colour two very small holes top and bottom of the centrefold just outside the borders otherwise in very good condition. John Speed's fine map of the county of Worcestershire from the first edition of his atlas the 'Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain'. The map is derived from that published by Christopher Saxton in 1577 and 'Augmetr: and published by John Speede citize of London' by the addition of boundaries. The source for much of this information was the Parliamentary Rolls'. Roads are not yet identified. A fine town plan of Worcester is provided as an inset. It is the first known plan of the town and believed to be the work of Speed himself. The draft manuscripts for many of these reside at Merton College Oxford. The atlas provided the first comprehensive collection of English town plans some the earliest of their kind. A battle scene below describes the Battle of Evesham of 1265 in which Simon de Montfort Earl of Leicester was defeated and killed by the forces of Henry III. Five coats of arms of nobles in the county flank the left border. John Speed 1552-1629 is the best known and among collectors the most popular British cartographer. He was like his father a tailor by trade with a passion for history. On joining the Society of Antiquaries he took his first steps towards the compilation of the atlas that has placed him among the cartographic immortals. In 1611 he produced the 'History of Great Britain' and his atlas the 'Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain' was published to accompany it. The 'Theatre .' was the first atlas of the British Isles ever produced containing sixty-seven maps which in addition to the counties of England and Wales also included general maps of the Heptarchy England in Anglo-Saxon times Great Britain and Ireland England Wales Scotland and the Provinces of Ireland together with maps of the Isles of Wight and Man and the Channel Islands. Preparation for the atlas took several years and the maps are all engraved by Jodocus Hondius in Amsterdam.

ref. 11256London: John Sudbury and George Humble. 1612. No binding. Very Good. FIRST EDITION IN FULL EARLY WASH COLOUR. 380 x 510 mm. full early wash colour small paper crease upper right corner otherwise in very good condition. A very rare example of John Speed's map of the county of Wiltshire in its first issue in full original wash colour. The map is derived from that published by Christopher Saxton in 1576 and enhanced by the addition of boundaries 'the Shires diuisions into Lathes Hundreds Wapentakes and Cantreds . I have separated'. He goes on to tell us that the source for much of this information was the 'Parlament Rowles'. Roads are not yet identified. In the upper corners are plans of 'Salesbury' and 'Stonehenge'. That of Salisbury is believed to be the work of Speed himself. The draft manuscripts for many of these reside at Merton College Oxford. The atlas provided the first comprehensive collection of English town plans some the earliest of their kind. This map was engraved by Jodocus Hondius 1563-1612 and was completed by 1610 as written in his imprint at the bottom. The general title page is dated 1611 but 1612 appears in the imprint of the Third and Fourth books. The final work was printed by William Hall and John Beale for John Sudbury and George Humble. The woodblocks cut for the verso text are the work of Christopher Schwytzer. The text itself is largely derived from that of William Camden's 'Britannia'. John Speed 1552-1629 is the best known and among collectors the most popular British cartographer. He was like his father a tailor by trade with a passion for history. On joining the Society of Antiquaries he took his first steps towards the compilation of the atlas that has placed him among the cartographic immortals. The 67 maps are drawn principally from those of Christopher Saxton and where available John Norden. Five maps are acknowledged to each of them. Three of them are derived from William Smith.
