Beautiful map of Bedfordshire. Cartouche at upper right, scales at lower right. The 1695 edition of Camden's Britannia was the first edition to contain Robert Morden's beautiful county maps. Morden went to considerable trouble to make them as accurate as possible, and they were the first county maps to include roads. Copper engraving. Hand coloured. Fine condition. Size: 43 x 36 cm. (17 x 14 inches).
