The map covers Victoria from Discovery Bay east past Melbourne to Mallacoota (Mallagoota). It also extends a considerable distance inland despite the region being only tenuously mapped. Victoria on this map is identified as 'Australia Felix' (the early name given to the lush green pastures of western Victoria). This map was issued in the same year as Victoria became an independent colony separate from New South Wales in July, 1851. This year also marked the beginning of the Australian gold rush, which would attract a large number of international immigrants, tripling its population within the next 20 years. The gold digging sites are marked in yellow throughout.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe map includes beautiful illustrations by H.

His maps not only provided up-to-date geographical knowledge, but their beautiful vignette views showed the native people, their occupations, cities, and points of interest.

His maps not only provided up-to-date geographical knowledge, but their beautiful vignette views showed the native people, their occupations, cities, and points of interest.

This map was issued in the same year as Victoria became an independent colony separate from New South Wales in July, 1851.

His principal engraver was John Rapkin, whose name and decorative vignettes appear on most Tallis \u0026amp; Co. maps. Due to the decorative style of Rapkin's work, many regard Tallis maps as the last bastion of English decorative cartography in the 19th century. Though most Tallis maps were originally issued uncolored, it was not uncommon for 19th century libraries to commission colorists to \"complete\" the atlas. The London Printing and publishing Company of London and New York bought the rights for many Tallis maps in 1850 and continued Publishing his\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eIllustrated Atlas of the World\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003euntil the mid 1850s.

After the publication of the final edition of Britannia in 1637, the work was not published again until 1695 when Gibson revised and translated the text from the original Latin and included fifty maps, mostly of the English counties, prepared by Robert Morden, replacing the outdated maps of Christopher Saxton.

He was among the first successful commercial map makers. Between about 1675 and his death in 1703, he was based under the sign of the Atlas at premises in Cornhill and New Cheapside, London. His cartographical output was large and varied. His best-known maps are those of South Wales, North Wales, and the English Counties first published in a new edition of Camden's \"Britannia\" in 1695 and subsequently reissued in 1722, 1753 and 1772. These maps were based on new information from gentlemen of each county and were newly engraved. Each had a decorated cartouche and showed numerous place names. Morden also produced in 1701 a series of smaller county maps often known as Miniature Mordens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"infoCardIcons\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv

He was among the first successful commercial map makers. Between about 1675 and his death in 1703, he was based under the sign of the Atlas at premises in Cornhill and New Cheapside, London. His cartographical output was large and varied. His best-known maps are those of South Wales, North Wales and the English Counties first published in a new edition of Camden's \"Britannia\" in 1695, and subsequently reissued in 1722, 1753 and 1772. These maps were based on new information from gentlemen of each county, and were newly engraved. Each had a decorated cartouche, and showed numerous place names. Morden also produced in 1701 a series of smaller county maps often known as Miniature Mordens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"infoCardIcons\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"iconset_1\" class=\"b_iconSetOrphan b_iconSetNonOpal\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"b_hList\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReference: Wikipedia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorn:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1650 · England \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDied:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1703 ·\u003cspan\u003e England\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten works:\u003cspan\u003e An introduction to astronomy Geography, navigation and other mathematical sciences\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eGuaranteed to be over 295 years old.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"b_subModule\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"btm_sml\" id=\"expitem_710973701_2\" data-appns=\"SERP\" data-k=\"5445.7\" data-expl=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"b_expDesk\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Antiquarian Print Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33341678551126,"sku":"","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1617\/1641\/products\/Lincolnshire.jpg?v=1604975639"},{"product_id":"maps-mallet-alain-manesson-description-de-lunivers-1683","title":"Map, Mallet, Alain Manesson - Description De L'Univers, 1683","description":"\u003cp\u003eMaps - Mallet Description De L'Univers Figure LXIV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDate: 1683\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist: Mallet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaper Size: 140 x 210mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrint size: 105 x 145mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition: Very good condition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnique: original copperplate engraving\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrice: $250\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDescription: original copperplate engraving\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvinance:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Copper Plate Engraving, published 1683, Paris for \"Description de l'Univers\" by Alain Manesson Mallet.

He was among the first successful commercial map makers. Between about 1675 and his death in 1703, he was based under the sign of the Atlas at premises in Cornhill and New Cheapside, London. His cartographical output was large and varied. His best-known maps are those of South Wales, North Wales and the English Counties first published in a new edition of Camden's \"Britannia\" in 1695, and subsequently reissued in 1722, 1753 and 1772. These maps were based on new information from gentlemen of each county, and were newly engraved. Each had a decorated cartouche, and showed numerous place names.

H. Colton was an important American map and atlas publisher active from 1833 to 1897. Colton's firm arose from humble beginnings when he moved to New York in 1831 and befriended the established engraver, Samuel Stiles. He worked under Stiles as the 'Co.' in Stiles and Co. from 1833 to 1836. Colton quickly recognized an emerging market in railroad maps and immigrant guides. Not a cartographer or engraver himself, Colton's initial business practice mostly involved purchasing the copyrights of other cartographers, most notably David H. Burr, and reissuing them with updated engraving and border work. His first maps, produced in 1833, were based on earlier Burr maps and depicted New York State and New York City. Between 1833 and 1855 Colton would proceed to publish a large corpus of guidebooks and railroad maps which proved popular. In the early 1850s, Colton brought his two sons, George Woolworth Colton (1827 - 1901) and Charles B. Colton (1832 - 1916), into the map business. G. W. Colton, trained as a cartographer and engraver, was particularly inspired by the idea of creating a large and detailed world atlas to compete with established European firms for the U.S. market. In 1855, G.W. Colton issued volume one the impressive two volume Colton's Atlas of the World. Volume two followed a year later. Possibly because of the expense of purchasing a two-volume atlas set, the sales of the Atlas of the World did not meet Colton's expectations and so, in 1856, the firm also issued the atlas as a single volume. The maps contained in this superb work were all original engravings and most bear an 1855 copyright. All of the maps were surrounded by an attractive spiral motif border that would become a hallmark of Colton's atlas maps well into the 1880s. In 1857, the slightly smaller Colton's General Atlas replaced the Atlas of the World, which lacked the border. Most early editions of the General Atlas published from 1857 to 1859 do not have the trademark Colton spiral border, which was removed to allow the maps to fit into a smaller format volume. Their customers must have missed the border because it was reinstated in 1860 and remained in all subsequent publications of the atlas. There were also darker times ahead, in 1858 Colton was commissioned at sum of 25,000 USD by the government of Bolivia to produce and deliver 10,000 copies a large format map of that country. Although Colton completed the contract in good faith, delivering the maps at his own expense, he was never paid by Bolivia, which was at the time in the midst of a series national revolutions. Colton would spend the remainder of his days fighting with the Bolivian and Peruvian governments over this payment and in the end, after a congressional intervention, received as much as 100,000 USD in compensation. Nonetheless, at the time it must have been a disastrous blow. J. H. Colton and Company is listed as one of New York's failed companies in the postal record of 1859. It must have been this that led Colton into the arms of Alvin Jewett Johnson and Ross C. Browning. The 1859 edition of Colton's General Atlas lists Johnson and Browning as the 'Successor's to J. H. Colton' suggesting an outright buyout, but given that both companies continued to publish separately, the reality is likely more complex. Whatever the case may have been, this arrangement gave Johnson and Browning access to many of Colton's map plates and gave birth to Johnson's New Illustrated (Steel Plate) Family Atlas. The Johnson's Atlas was published parallel to Colton's atlas well in to the 1880s. The Colton firm itself subsequently published several other atlases including an Atlas of America, the Illustrated Cabinet Atlas, the Octavo Atlas of the Union, and Colton's Quarto Atlas of the World. They also published a large corpus of wall maps, pocket maps, and guides. The last known publications of the Colton firm date to 1897 and include a map and a view, both issued in association with the Merchant's Association of New York. In 1898, the Colton firm merged with the Ohman Firm and continued to publish as Colton, Ohman \u0026amp; Co. until 1901. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReference: Rumsey 1856\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquarian Print Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39279883452502,"sku":"","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1617\/1641\/products\/Australia440x365_6d6ebbba-bb2e-4417-8864-efd0a9fb2a15.jpg?v=1616036356"},{"product_id":"map-steiler-adolf-das-planeten-system-steilers-hand-atlas-no-9-c1861-1","title":"Map, Steiler Adolf, Das Planeten System, Steilers Hand Atlas No 9, c1823","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDate: 1823\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\/ Author: Steiler Adolf\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEngraver: Statten\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublisher: Gotha, Justus Perthes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePaper Size: 450 x 370mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrint size: 360 x 320mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition: good\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTechnique: Steel Engraving. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrice: $250\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDescription: Steel engraving \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWorld Map\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eErdkarte: Stieler, Adolf, 1861\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFull Title of Map: Erdkartein Mercators Projection zur Uebersiht der christlichen Staaten.
