[London] : 1755. A charming eighteenth century map of the parish of St. Paul Shadwell, with the huddle of streets round the church and the riverfront, New Crane Stairs, Shadwell Dock, etc. Although remaining unpublished until 1755, other maps in this series are known to have been originally produced by Richard Blome in the late seventeenth century and the present map may also be his work. Produced for the part-work edition of John Stow's "A Survey of the Cities of London and Westminster" (London. 1754-1757).
Copper line engraving on paper. Later hand colour. Engraved surface 176 x 300mm (approx. 7" x 11-7/8"). Some very slight browning, but otherwise in very good state. A guaranteed genuine antique map. Adams 37/130.
