156. John Bartholomew / A & C Black - Key Map 1882
Adam and Charles Black are probably best remembered for their guide books. From c.1862 they produced the Guide To Devonshire (142): these road and railway guides should find a corner in the portmanteau of every person about to undertake a journey of pleasure or business. The guide was revised and reprinted (with its own pagination) in 1882 and contained a new county map by John Bartholomew (see 150) and an index map of the county printed on the inside cover.1
Size: 145 x 190 mm. No scale.
KEY MAP OF DEVONSHIRE (Ee). Signature: J. Bartholomew. Edin. (EeOS). Map sections named with page number, outlined and all over-printed in red. Railways to date. Dashed lines represent the sections of the book, dotted lines for county boundary.
