A New and Accurate Map of New South Wales with Norfolk and Lord Howe's Islands, Port Jackson &c. from Actual Surveys
Edinburgh, Thomas Brown, [circa 1807/ 1801].
An engraved map with original hand colouring (printed surface 348 × 298 mm, sheet size 394 × 320 mm). Engraved by 'Gavin & Son'.
A little tanned and faded; a few faint spots of foxing; a very good copy.
A map of the east coast of Australia, with inset maps of Port Jackson and Botany Bay, Norfolk Island, and Lord Howe Island. Tooley 21, suggesting Brown's 'A General Atlas' as the source and the date of 1801. This example is from a later (likely separate) issue, with the paper watermarked 1807. This version is copied from an earlier map published by Robert Wilkinson in 1792 or 1794 (see Tooley 14 and 15).
