Stanford's Library Map of South America (1864)

The Stanford's Map of South America is from a fascinating series of reproductions from our Edward Stanford Cartographic Collection archive. This reproduction of a map published in 1879 by the founder of our company, Edward Stanford. It was constructed in 1864 by Alexander Keith Johnston who was a geographer in Edinburgh for the Queen. The continent is shown already in its port-colonial stage but with many international borders not yet fixed and different from today's. An interesting feature of the map is the presentation of several disputed regions, between Bolivia and Paraguay, Peru and Ecuador, or Brazil and the "Granadian Confederation" (present day Colombia). When this map was made, Guyana was British Guiana and Suriname was Dutch Guiana. Central America is also shown in slightly less detail up to the Southern part of Guatemala and some of the Caribbean islands are included up to the southern tip of Dominica. Topography is indicated by hachures and many tributaries of the Amazon, the Orinoco and the Parana are named. Latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 5° intervals. This reproduction has been taken from an original cartographic scale of 1:5,275,000 on a 31x28" map that was made out of four sheets.

Stanford's Map of Italy (1859)

The Stanford's Map of Italy is from a fascinating series of reproductions from our Edward Stanford Cartographic Collection archive. This is a reproduction of a map originally published on 2nd May 1859 by Edward Stanford, the founder of our company. The map catches the country in an interesting stage of its history, just before the unification, and still shows the individual states: the Kingdom of Piedmont - Sardinia, the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, the Papal States, etc, all in different colours. Hachures are used to show the spine of the Apennines and other mountainous regions. Interesting insets show enlargements of the environs of Venice, Genoa and Naples with Vesuvius, and another panel presents the whole of the Austro-Hungarian Empire which then still included Lombardy and north-eastern Italy. This reproduction was taken from what used to be called a "cloth-dissected" map, made when the map itself was cut into sections and each section then individually pasted onto an overall cloth backing for the whole map. In this version the whole map is backed onto cloth in one piece but the gaps between the sections have been reproduced in the printing to preserve the style and the feeling of the original. This lovely map will appeal to anyone interested in this great country.

The colouring and the boundaries are overlaid on a street plan with names of main and selected smaller streets, graphics indicating parks and other common land, railway lines, etc. Hachures show the topography with the hills of north and south London clearly marked. This is London which, administratively, extends north of the Thames between Hammersmith, Hampstead, Stamford Hill and Poplar, and south of the river between Putney, Streatham, Lower Sydenham and Eltham (although the map itself extends a bit further out, particularly in the north-east). An interesting feature is the inclusion within the County of London of a small area outside its overall boundary - the site of the present day Leg of Mutton Nature Reserve in Barnes.

Depicting the great land route to China and Korea, this map was published by Edward Stanford, Long Acre on the 1st February 1904. This vital rail route was also known as the Moscow Highway or the Tea Route because of the large quantities of tea exported from China. It connected European Russia to Siberia and China. Construction started in 1730 and was not completed until the mid 19th-century. Until the Tran-Siberian Railway was built in 1916, the Siberian Railway route was the longest and most famous. This is a beautifully detailed map that will appeal to anyone with an interest in railway history.

Stanford's Pacific-centred World Map (1884)

The Stanford's Pacific-centred World Map is from a fascinating series of reproductions from our Edward Stanford Cartographic Collection archive. Originally published in 1884, this political wall map is drawn on a Mercator's projection presenting the world with the Pacific Ocean at its centre. Political boundaries are coloured in bold, gradually shading lighter as is typical in maps from this time. Latitude and longitude lines are at 10° intervals. Europe and Africa look very different from today, Asia with many changes mainly in the Middle East, but the Americas mostly unchanged. A particularly interesting feature of the map is the difference in the presentation of the two Polar Regions: the Arctic Ocean with most of its coastline already there, whilst the Antarctic is still in the early stages of exploration and only segments of its coast already mapped. Separate panels show lands contiguous to the North and South Poles, drawn to the equatorial scale of the map.

The tracks of the following three expeditions are given: The Challenger 1873-76 The German Expedition 'Valdivia' 1898-99 The Belgian Expedition 'Belgia' 1898-99 Other lines engraved on the chart are: The appropriate limit of the Pack Ice during the Austral Summer Months. Line of freezing point in the air. Northern limit of icebergs.

Stanford's Tourist's Map of Europe (1928)

The Stanford's Tourist Map of Europe is from a fascinating series of reproductions from our Edward Stanford Cartographic Collection archive. Published by Stanford's Geographical Establishment in May 1928, this map shows country borders in contrasting colours and the network on main and subsidiary railway lines. Coverage includes the southern coastline of the Mediterranean, extends to the eastern coast of the Black Sea, but in the north only the southern part of Scandinavia is included. The map shows Europe with its post-Versailles borders; British Isles have the same red border for both GB and the whole of Ireland, but acknowledging the existence of the "Irish Free State". International borders along the southern and the eastern Mediterranean indicate colonial or mandated possessions. Within all the countries map shows main and subsidiary railway lines, displaying the great contrast between the extensive networks within Germany, most of England or northern France and the less densely covered eastern and south-eastern parts of Europe. Within Russia the railway linking St. Petersburg to Moscow with the kink (straightened in 2001) in the line known as the "Tsar's finger" catches one's eye. Latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 2° intervals.
