Hertfordshire, an original antique map by A. Fullarton, published in Glasgow, 1834. A steel plate engraving, coloured. Map size 24 x 20 cm with a mount size of 40 x 35 cm. With a vignette view of St. Alban's Abbey, this is an attractive map from Fullarton's Parliamentary Gazetteer Of England & Wales. Archibald Fullarton & Company was one of the leading publishers working in Scotland in the second quarter of the nineteenth century. One part of the company's prolific output was a number of atlases, & books containing maps. Fullarton's popular gazetteer of England & Wales, Fullarton's Parliamentary Gazetteer Of England & Wales, illustrated with a series of finely engraved maps of the counties, is notable for the clarity of presentation, despite the small size. The atlas records the changes made in the Great Reform Bill, which set out the basis of Britain's modern parliamentary constituencies. The gazetteer went through numbers of editions, with the maps revised & up-dated. Some of the maps were engraved for Fullarton by Robert Scott, who incorporated an attractive vignette views inside the map border.

Hertfordshire, an original antique map by T. Moule, published in London, 1837. A steel plate engraving, coloured. Map size 26 x 20 cm with a mount size of 40.5 x 34 cm. Maps by Thomas Moule (1784-1851) are probably, with those by Speed, the best known of all series of English county maps. Issued from 1830, the maps combine a clarity of cartographic style with immense detail, by way of vignette views, scenes & portraits relating to the county shown, often set within a gothic architectural or floral surround, into which armorial devices & so on are worked. As the editions of the maps were published, first in The English Counties Delineated & later in Barclay's English Dictionary, the development of the network of railways throughout England can be observed. Moule, like many other map-makers & map-sellers before him, was a man of many talents. As an author his output included books & papers on topography, history, genealogy, heraldry & architecture; the maps which he designed show elements of these studies. The 57 maps & plans produced for Moule's English Counties Delineated, originally issued as a part-work, include maps of each English county, the towns of London, Bath, Boston, Portsmouth & Plymouth, & the Isles of Wight, Man & Thanet. Frequently entitled the last series of decorative county maps they are good informative maps, as popular now as they were in the early years of Queen Victoria's reign. This example with protective margins added. Antique maps from various original publishers are presented on the Stanford ...
