John White’s Map of Virginia From 1590 — The First Printed Map of Virginia and North Carolina

An important 16th century North American map known not only for its level of detail and accuracy, but also for its “firsts”: the first printed map of Virginia and North Carolina, the first to use Virginia in its title, the first to name the Chesapeake Bay, and also the first regional map showing the Roanoke Colony. Frankfurt: Theodor de Bry (engraver) for inclusion in his “Anglorum in Virginiam aduentus”, 1590.

Map is based on the work of cartographer, artist and explorer John White, one of the first settlers and Governor of the Roanoke Colony who, after sailing back to the Colony from England in 1587, had found all the colonists famously missing, their fate a mystery still unsolved. Philip Burden, who wrote the definitive reference book, “The Mapping of North America”, wrote of this map: “One of the most significant cartographical milestones in colonial North American history…the most accurate map drawn in the sixteenth century of any part of that continent.”

This full-sheet engraved map still retains its dark print, with the English Royal Arms at top left, and artistic touches throughout such as ships and sea monsters in the open ocean, and Native American canoeists in the inland waters. Map is the second state, with “C” laid over the “E” in Ehesepiooc. Map measures 16.675″ x 12.25″, nicely matted and framed to a size of 28″ x 23.5″. Expert repair to single vertical fold, and small area of repair to lower right corner, just touching the edge of the ship, where paper loss has been replaced. Overall in very good to near fine condition given age, displaying beautifully. Sold for $6,665.

An inset is comprised of “Evan’s Polymetric Table of America,” which allows one to calculate the distance between most of the prominent towns. Text below the map reads, “A Compendious Account of the British Colonies in North America,” which devotes a paragraph of description to each of the North American colonies, including Florida, Canada, and the Province of Quebec. Issued separately by Sayer and Bennett, who also published “the American Military Pocket Atlas,” that year for the use of British officers. A notable map of the American Revolution, published the same year as the American Declaration of Independence. 20.75″ x 28.5″; 29.25″ x 37.5″ framed. Excellent condition. Sold for $6,000.

Map of Texas, Oregon and California From 1846

“A New Map of Texas Oregon and California with the Regions Adjoining.

Philadelphia: Published by S. Augustus Mitchell, 1846. With contemporary hand-coloring, folding map by engraver H.N. Burroughs was Mitchell’s most important map, considered the defacto standard and thereby affecting subsequent maps of the area. It was the first to include recent explorations in the Great Basin, with boundary lines of Rio Grande to the south, and Oregon to the north at 54 degrees 40 minutes, above which are “British Possessions”. An inset to lower left entitled “Emigrant Route from Missouri to Oregon”, provides the distance between western cities and landmarks, undoubtedly aiding weary travelers. With decorative scrollwork along the margins, map measures 21″ x 22.5″ unfolded, nicely matted and framed to a size of 34.5″ x 41.5″.
