Reuben Ramble designed this atlas for children but it is now highly desired. The maps were originally published by Robert Miller as the ‘New Miniature Atlas’ of 1821. Prior to that they were utilised as a set of exceedingly rare card maps of the counties by Thomas Crabb. Here Ramble surrounds the wide margins of the maps with a series of ornate vignettes. The reference works normally place a date of c.1845 on this work however ownership inscriptions provided on other examples we have had provide important evidence of an earlier attribution. Provenance: private English collection. Carroll 74B; Chubb 517.
