Engraved map, with the associated description table; centrefold restored, bottom right hand corner re-instated, with small loss. This rare little map, probably taken from an example of Seller's 'Atlas Minimus', began life as a playing card (only one known set), the III of the Europe suit, but was quickly re-engraved to form part of a little pocket atlas, the 'Atlas Minimus' presumably aimed at the education market, perhaps the earliest British cartographic publication so designed.

John Seller's rare map of Middlesex Engraved map on two sheets joined, fine original full-wash colour. The map was first issued by Seller in 1679. The map was to be part of Seller's large folio county atlas of England and Wales, entitled 'Atlas Anglicanus'. However the project, like much of Seller's over-ambitious schemes, never got off the ground, with only six of the counties - Middlesex, Surrey, Hertfordshire, Kent, Buckinghamshire, and Oxfordshire - being surveyed. In 1693, he was forced to sell the plates to Philip Lea, who issued them separately and as part of the composite atlases of England and Wales. After Lea's death in 1700, the business was run by his widow Anne, until her death in 1730. How the map came to bear the imprint of Richard Davies is unclear, however, he was known as a co-publisher of several maps and atlases, and he might have come to some agreement with Anne Lea. Scale: 3/4 to 1 statute mile. BLMC Maps 3455.(9.); Skelton 115.

Depicted with north to the right, extending from Puerto Rico to Venezuela, title cartouche at top centre. The map has a compass at sea, rhumb lines, anchorages and depth soundings. It was published in The English Pilot for Mount and Page, in John Seller's fourth book, covering American waters. The atlas was produced and published to counter the prevailing dominance and output of maritime material by the Dutch. Seller began his atlas in the 1670s, and it proved so popular that it ran to over 30 editions, the later ones produced some 100 years later. As a result many charts were re-engraved, or replaced entirely by more accurate examples. Tooley, Maps and Mapmaking p61 Size: 525 x 430 mm. Copper engraving. Uncoloured. Fine condition.

12mo (in 4s), engraved title, 72 pages, and 56 double-page engraved plates (of which 31 are celestial maps). Contemporary mottled calf, very nicely rebacked to match, rear endpapers replaced. Personal library stamp on front endpapers. FIRST EDITION of the first British celestial atlas. John Seller was an important figure in English cartography as he set out to break the monopoly enjoyed by the Dutch in the production of atlases, particularly maritime atlases. Seller overreached himself, however, and later productions were less ambitious; he produced a terrestrial atlas in 1670 (Atlas Minimus), followed by this, the first celestial atlas printed in England, seven years later.The plates show the systems of Ptolemy, Copernicus and Tycho Brahe, maps of the moon and lunar phases, the planets, comets, tables of lunar phases, eclipses, etc, followed by 31 maps of constellations. The plate count varies in descriptions because not all of the plates are counted as double. In this copy all the plates are bound in pairs facing each other; some are clearly printed from one double-page copperplate while at least six are printed from single-page copperplates. Wing S2463.

The Wardington "vade-mecum for English gentlemen" Third edition, early issue, 8vo (140 by 85mm), engraved title and 71 plates and tables (some double-page, 3 with moveable volvelles and including 6 maps), coloured in a contemporary hand, 40pp. text, contemporary calf, Pease crests added in gilt, spine repaired at head and foot Seller's Pocket Book is a vade-mecum for English gentlemen, a compendium of useful information for every occasion, with an impressively wide-ranging series of tables including, among others, monthly almanacs, calendars, lists of the Kings of England and Lord Mayors of London, feast days, tables to calculate Easter and the full moon, tables of astronomy, trigonometry, geometry, weights and measures, and even a table to calculate how many bricks would be needed to make a wall. One of the most uncommon of the plates is a double-page engraving explaining Edward Coleman's system of cyphers. Two of the maps are double-page: A Mapp of the World Shewing what a Clock it is (at any time) in any part of the World, and A Traveling Mapp of England. & Dominon of Wales. The world map has an accompanying full-page leaf with rotating overlay, and both seem to have been engraved for use in the Pocket Book. The single-page maps are of the continents (with the Americas on two sheets, North and South America), each with an accompanying engraved table of the divisions (or countries/regions), first prepared for the Book of Geography, and its later edition the Atlas minimus. These maps were also used in editions of Seller's pocket atlases, the New Systeme of Geography [1684, and later], and Atlas Terrestris [ca. 1685, and later]. The Pocket Book is famous for its varied collations; it was first published in 1676 or 1677, and re-issued frequently thereafter to about 1707, with some of the composition due to the whim of the purchaser. For this third edition, the engraved title-page has been re-engraved, inserting Seller's shop address at the Hermitage Stairs in Wapping, with his shop address in Cornhill dateable between 1678 and 1681. This is an early issue of the third edition, with all but one of the monthly almanac leaves in the first state, and without the double-page engraved plates from the Atlas Coelestis [1680], found in other examples of this edition, but with the double-page plate with a table to calculate the day of the new and full moon re-engraved for the years 1680 1700 (but actually only showing 1680 to 1692), this accomplished simply by engraving over the superfluous left hand columns. Provenance: Lord Wardington (1924-2005), bookplate. cf. Shirley, British Library T.SELL-4a; cf. Wing S2480.

Copperplate engraving, 425 x 520 mm. The paper a little soiled. [London : Mount & Page, Uncommon English chart of the much of the western coast of Africa, extending from near Cape Verde to just beyond the Cape of Good Hope. The plate is orientated with north at the left, which allows the coastline to fit neatly onto the plate. The plate was prepared at the end of John Seller's career; it was later used in two volumes of The English Pilot, the Fifth Book for Africa and the Third Book, the Oriental Navigation, this example having been issued in the latter.

Octavo; engraved title-page, 81, [3]pp.; seventy-three engraved plates, on fortythree single-pages and twenty-five double-page plates, six double-page engraved maps. Recent speckled calf, covers panelled in blind, five raised bands and red morocco label with gilt lettering to spine. [London :] The Booksellers of London and Westminster Rare late edition of Seller?s Pocket Book, seemingly the text block of the Jeremiah Seller and Charles Price sr. printing, but with the title-page re-engraved to erase their imprint. This was presumably done at the end of the Seller and Price partnership, when the partners went bankrupt, circa 1707. The Pocket Book is of notoriously difficult collation; it was first published in 1676 or 1677, and re-issued frequently thereafter to about 1707, with some of the composition due to the whim of the purchaser. It was a handy pocket-sized vademecum for the gentleman. As described on the title-page, there are sections to answer all sorts of problems. The first section, not listed on the title-page, is calendar-related: tables for the twelve months, tables to find Easter Day, the New Moon, the day of the month, a perpetual almanac, sign of the Moon and so on. The other principal grouping in this copy is geometrical and trigonometrical tables and diagrams. At the end is the set of maps of the World and continents, the Americas on two sheets, North and South America; these maps were also used in editions of Seller?s pocket atlases, the New Systeme of Geography [1684, and later], and Atlas Terrestris [ca. 1685, and later]. One of the rarest plates is ?A Generall Description of the several Parts of Fortification? Reference: this edition is unrecorded in ESTC but cf. R16068.

Folio (475 x 305 mm), [ii], 96pp, 22 engraved charts, most double-page, two engraved text illustrations, many woodcut harbour charts and coastal profiles set in the text. London: Mount & Page [William and John Mount, Thomas Page (II) and Thomas (III)], Uncommon late printing of the 'English Pilot' volume for the 'Southern Navigation', for the use of mariners in European waters, covering the coasts from Scotland southwards, with the Atlantic coasts of Ireland, France and Spain round to the Straits of Gibraltar. This was the principal English pilot book for the region for the period. This copy was published during the Seven Years' War, when fears of a French invasion were at their height, and covers those areas most likely to be the scene of naval actions or landings. The chart composition of the book can vary between copies; this copy is without the chart of the Forth of Forth and two charts of the Dutch coast found in some editions, but has an additional chart of the 'Westerne Islands'. ESTC records three American locations; Adams and Waters add the National Maritime Museum and two further American locations.
