A propos de cet article

A very scarce hard cover, within a protective rigid pocket folder, both in very good condition for their age. An extensive and decorative, historical map of the capital in the time of Henry VIII. Its full title is "London in the Olden Time, being a Topographical and Hiftorical Memoir of London, Weftminster and Southwark, Accompanying a Pictoral map of the City and its Suburbs, as they exifted in the Reign of Henry VIII, before the Diffolution of the Monafteries." The map, laid on linen, is presented within the hard cover book. This details the history of London and contains a complete index to the map. According to details penned to title page, this copy was presented to the Herne Bay Literary Institute, by Miss Newton, the daughter of the author, William Newton, (d.10.07.1861 Herne bay), in July 1883. Brown cloth pocket folder, (rigid) has bright gilt title and decoration to the front. Light fading, rubbing and wear to front, edges and corners, with bubbling to rear board where a section of cloth has lifted from card. No tears present. Pocket folder 'closing' flap is worn, creased and faded, with marble backing paper torn and missing in places. Boards show wear to edges and corners (bumped), light wrinkling and fading to cloth cover, creasing to spine head and foot, closed tear to spine foot, split to spine head, and occasional blemish. Front board is decorated as per card case. Map within shows some age-related discolouration at folds, but details and colours are bright and true. A pink line represents the area of London destroyed by the Great Fire of London in 1666. Beautifully illustated border comprises of a royal coat of arms, various English shields, the names of notable Englishmen and Kings, and allegorical figures around the title cartouche. Within, pages and map are securely bound. Tanning and foxing is present to pages and reverse of map, however, none is overly significant and content is bright and clear. More pictures are available upon request. CN.…
