Middlesex
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 issue, published with his brother George, between 1822 and 1835, was the only version with place names on the map engraved to read with North at the top, the title, imprint and distances from London being engraved sideways. The final issue was by lithographic transfer in Crutchleys' Railroad Companion to England and Wales...in 1862.
This map of Middlesex is the only version with place names on the map engraved to read with North at the top, the title, imprint and distances from London being engraved sideways. 
Some light finger marking to paper edges but still a good example of the 1st state of the re-engraved plate of 1822 in original hand colour.
