PIGOT'S MINIATURE SERIES. WITH DISTANCE TABLE, VIGNETTE AND TEXT.
SURREY
PUBLISHED BY PIGOT & CO. LONDON AND MANCHESTER. | Pigot & Son. Engravers Manchr.
Lithographic transfer produced by James Pigot and Isaac Slater for publication in Pigot & Co.'s pocket atlas, topography and gazetteer of England…London and Manchester J. Pigot & Co. (1839). The work was issued twice more in 1841 and 1850 and individual county sections were probably issued separately. James Pigot (1769-1843) is well known for his steel engraved county maps and his directories published from 1826 and this series of lithograph printed maps were based on his steel engraved series, but this miniature work did not achieve the success of his earlier publications and the maps are uncommon today.
Good example in original hand colour from the 2nd lithographic transfer issued in 1841 & 1850. Includes 22 pages of text description of the county, distance tables and vignette of St. Saviours Church Southwark.
