Cloth-backed small size version of A New Map of Irel&, originally published by William Faden around 1797 & dedicated to ” His Majesty King George the Third, The Patron & Promoter of every useful science”. Counties are in different colours, with the divisions into Ulster, Connaught, Leinster & Munster also marked. A pretty vignette of a rural scene with cupids decorates the title. This reproduction was taken from what used to be called a “cloth-dissected” map, made when the map itself was cut into sections & each section then individually pasted onto an overall cloth backing for the whole map. In this version the whole map is backed onto cloth in one piece but the gaps between the sections have been reproduced in the printing to preserve the style & the feeling of the original. Each individual map is presented folded in a colourful case covered with a unique design marbled paper – no two cases are identical.PLEASE NOTE: this title is also available in a larger size reproduction.

British Isles Physical Wall Map at 1:1, 000, 000 from the Ordnance Survey, size 93.5 x 104cm (3ft 1” x 3ft 5” approx), with a laminated surface which can be written on with suitable marker pens without damaging the map. The map shows the physical geography of Great Britain & Ireland by relief shading & altitude colouring, with numerous spot heights (in metres), plus names of peaks, mountain chains, forests & other natural features, etc. Larger towns are marked, but the map does not show the road network. *LAMINATED & ENCAPSULATED WALL MAPS:*- *laminated* wall maps have a thin layer of plastic usually applied to the printed side only. They can be written on with suitable marker pens without any damage to the map but, unless laminated on both sides, they are not damp-proof.- *encapsulated* wall maps are sealed between two sheets of plastic. They are more rigid & heavier than laminated maps of the same size. They are damp-proof & do not crinkle in humid conditions. Encapsulation gives the map a shiny surface, similar to being displayed behind glass.- *please note:* many publishers & retailers often use these two terms interchangeably. Our map titles & descriptions follow the definitions provided above. ...
