Speed's classic map of Surrey

SPEED, John.

Surrey Described and Divided into Hundreds.
London, Bassett & Chiswell, 1676. Coloured. 385 x 510mm.

Top left corner missing as usual in this edition due to the printing plate being broken, minor repairs.

One of the most decorative maps of Surrey, engraved by Jodocus Hondius in 1610. Inset elevations of Richmond and Nonsuch Palaces, armorials, a compass rose and strapwork decorations add to its attractiveness.
