A fine detailed map of Maryland, Delaware, the Chesapeake and parts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania published in the London Magazine and engraved by Thomas Kitchin. The map shows the towns, counties, roads, rivers, bays amongst other features. It accompanied the August 1757 edition of the ‘London Magazine’ which was one of the leading magazines of its day. The map is derived from the landmark one by John Mitchell of 1755 and is surprisingly on a not to dissimilar scale. Jolly, D.C. (Brit Per) LOND-122; Papenfuse & Coale p. 36.
