Book Description

Herefordshire. From 'New Pocket Atlas and Geography of England and Wales'. Sold by John Luffman, 28 Little Bell Alley, Coleman Street. London. 1803. Hand coloured engraved map. Mounted and framed in gilded wood by A. Rumsey, Church Street, Hereford. Frame size 24 x 32.5cm. Map size 9 x 16.5cm. John Luffman (1775-1820) London map seller and engraver. His New Pocket Atlas contained fifty four curious circular county maps. Beneath the map is a type set giving background details of the county. Because the Atlas was so tiny, its mortality rate has been high. Thus these maps are now scarce. (Photo images through glass, so some reflection)
