BUCKINGHAMSHIRE
London. Published by G.& J.Cary. No.86 St.James's Str.
A re-engraved and revised version of of the map issued by John Cary in 1806 which in turn, was a re-engraved version of his 1789 map. All were issued under the title of Cary's Traveller's Companion, a highly successful work necessitating the re-engraving of worn plates to continue publication. This version was published with his brother George between 1822 and 1835. The final issue was by lithographic transfer in Crutchleys' Railroad Companion to England and Wales...in 1862.
Good example of the 1st state of the re-engraved plate in original hand colour.
