Virginia
Blaeu, Joan. & Guiljelmus
Nova Virginiae Tabula
Amsterdam, G. & J. Blaeu. 1634-35 [37,7 x 48,2 cm]
Copper engraving, hand colored in outline, published in Joan Blaeu's 'Atlas Novus' German text edition in Amsterdam around 1634-35. Engraved by D. Grijp. This map was engraved after the famous map of Captain Smith's map of Virginia. This example is the 2nd state with the altered imprint 'ex officina Guiljelmi Blaeuw'. Blaeu used this map for the first time in his Atlantic Appendix (1630) and thereafter in virtually all editions of the atlas (Tooley). The appealing and quite detailed map is showing the discoveries of this region 'Virginia, the Chesapeake Bay and Maryland' after John Smith's map 1612. Blaeu's version of this map was the first map showing the Chesapeake region, that was really widely spread out by the Blaeu firm. It was one of the most detailed maps of the Chesapeake region, until 1673 in London the large four-sheet map by Augustine Herman was prepared.
In excellent condition. Burden 193; Koeman Atlantes Neerlandici 9410:2.2; Tooley, The Mapping of America pp. 161/162 Derivative 1 State 2/2;

Van der Aa, Pieter
Jonathan Dickensons rampsoedige reystogt van Jamaika na Pensylvania nagespoord.
Leiden, Van der Aa 1706-08 [15,5 x 23,2 cm]
Original copper engraving, uncolored as published. Rare and interesting map of eastern coast of North America from Pennsylvania across Virginia and Carolina towards Florida and the Western parts of the Caribbean including Cuba, the Bahamas, Jamaica and Hispaniola. The map illustrates the famous voyage of the Dickenson family, which left Jamaica around 1696 and got ship wrecked in a storm at the east coast of Florida. They stranded near 'Jupiter island', which now about 20 miles north of West Palm Beach. Their adventurous journey continued being captured by Indians in Florida, then being released from their captivity and their long voyage ended finally in Philadelphia. The long voyage is shown and engraved on the map. The famous Dutch publisher and mapmaker Pieter Van der Aa (1659 Leiden - 1733 Leiden) published 'during the period 1682-1733, an enormous quantity of printed matter' (Koeman). This map was actually published in the first edition of his travel books 'Naauwkeurige versameling der gedenk-waardigste zee en landreysen na Oost en West-Indien', in Leiden 1706-08.
On the full sheet as published, however minor cut within the upper engraved borderline. The map was originally folded in this series, so that old folds are more or less slightly visible. In very good to excellent condition.
