1592026339Frankfurt am Main 1591 1592. Original Antique Map . Single Sheet. Near Fine. Laid Paper. Size: Image And Border Approximately 17 7/8 Inches X 1M.5 Inches 45.2 Cm X 36.75 Cm. Debry Printed His Voyage To Virginia In 1590 As Part I Of His Works But Burden Mapping Of North America Provides No Record That A 1592 Printing Exists. This Map Has No Center Fold But Contemporary Engravings Exist Of The Offices Of The Great 17Th Century Cartographic Publishers With Row Upon Row Of Flat Drawers For Storage Of Single Maps; It Would Be Unreasonable To Believe That None Of These Unbound Maps Survived. This Appears To Be One Of Them Although The Consensus Of Modern Dealers Is That No Unfolded Large Map First Published In A Book Can Exist. Although We Have Been Unable To Locate A 1592 German Edition Of Debry We Believe This Is A Map As Issued In The 1592 German Edition Of De Bry Which Was First Published In 1591 And Subsequently Reprinted In 1592 And 1594 And In The Seventeenth Century. Small Cartouche At Lower Left Monogram With Text "Caesavece Matis. Privilegio Mdxcii" In The Plate Added After Original 1591 Printing. This Is An Unfolded Sheet Which Was Never Bound In A Book; A Strong Impression Without Damage And With Old Light Partial Coloring. Once Quite Aged Then Professionally Cleaned De-Acidified And Mounted Loosely With Archival Materials By A Museum-Experienced Conservator In About 2000. Scarce. And Now 430 Years Later It's Depicting A Hangout For Orangutans. <br/> <br/> unknown

1898List2965United States and Caribbean 1898. Approximately twenty-nine pieces: logbook of eighty-four double-sided pages measuring 13 x 20 inches; eight letters seventeen documents and forms and three pieces of miscellany. Much wear and significant damage to logbook including water damage mildew and tearing; log book overall fair to good minus. Other materials good to very good. Overall good. William Higgins 1791–1872 was a farmer sea captain and owner of and investor in ships from Bowdoinham Maine. According to the Maine Maritime Museum which holds his family papers Higgins’ ships traded mainly in lumber which they took from Wilmington North Carolina to the Caribbean.<br /> <br /> Offered here is a logbook recording the travels of several of Higgins’ ships particularly the brigs Mary Jane and Llewellyn alongside related documents and personal letters. The logbook dating between 1832 and 1836 extensively documents the course wind data and weather remarks for travels of the ships between east coast US port cities and various locations in the Caribbean including Barbados St. Thomas and Martinique. The logbook also contains a copy of astronomer and mathematician Elijah Burritt’s illustration “A Plan of the Solar System Exhibiting its Relative Magnitudes and Distances†engraved by W. G Evans and printed in 1835 by F.J. Huntington.<br /> <br /> The letters and documents date from 1830 to 1867 and are also mostly business-related including an insurance document for the brig William Parrington a roll of sailors enlisted to work on a six-month journey between the Caribbean and the US in 1845 a bill of sale for ¼ stake in the brig Mary Jane and receipts and logs for items including various liquors sugar molasses casks and so on. One letter from a young man in Wilmington requests advice on how to start his own business in the style of Higgins’; other letters concern family matters. One interesting undated document is a writ addressed to the Marshal of the District of Maine concerning a lawsuit filed against Higgins and Rufus Carr master of the William Parrington by Zachrisson Nelson Co. The suit alleged that Carr acting as an agent for the ship’s owners that is Higgins had agreed to an affreightment involving shipping from Jamaica to Spain to New York but had then “wholly neglected and refused to do soâ€.<br /> <br /> Of interest to scholars of maritime history and trade in the mid-19th century. unknown
1860WRCAM48522Antigua but actually Philadelphia: R.B. Eldridge & Co. 1860. Lithographic sheet map 20 1/2 x 26 1/2 inches. Backed with contemporary blue paper. Light foxing and toning. A few small tears in margins. Very good. An unusual lithographic edition of Norie's 1827 revision of this handsome chart lithographed by Wagner & McGuigan in Philadelphia. A statement in the cartouche reads: "Presented by R.B. Eldridge Antigua to Captain Andrew Tyler." The captain's name is accomplished in manuscript. R.B. Eldridge is not listed in Tooley's DICTIONARY OF MAPMAKERS and appears to be unrelated to publisher of charts George Eldridge. It seems most likely that he was rather an Antigua merchant who commissioned a reprint of the chart for complimentary distribution to sea captains. A handsome piece. R.B. Eldridge & Co. unknown books
