Descripción del artículo del vendedor

ASSACHUSETTS - BRISTOL COUNTY - 1871. ----TITLE: Bristol County. ----BACKGROUND: Bristol County was created by the Plymouth Colony on June 2, 1685, but through the years areas were annexed or carved out to create the configuration shown. The larger towns of Fall River, New Bedford, and Taunton (the county seat) are shown. Townships are separately colored. Part of Rhode Island is on the left. ----PUBLICATION DETAILS: 22" h x 15"w. Bristol County is in original wash color; the remainder of the map is uncolored. From Walling & Gray, Official Topographical Atlas of Massachusetts (Boston: Stedman, Brown & Lyon, 1871). Walling & Gray also authored atlases of Pennsylvania s in 1871 and Ohio in 1872. ----PUBLISHERS: Henry Francis Walling was a cartographer born in Rhode Island in 1825 and died in Massachusetts in 1888. He was well prepared to publish maps and atlases. He had studied mathematics and surveying. He worked in the office of Barrett Cushing, a civil engineer in Providence. He began topographic work in 1849 preparing atlases containing maps and scientific descriptions of most of the northern states and the Dominion of Canada. He worked with h the geodetic survey of Massachusetts on the preparation of the state maps. He was a fellow of the American association for the advancement of science, and of the American Society of Civil Engineers. ----Ormando Willis Gray was born in Vermont in 1829 and died in Massachusetts in 1912. He was a civil and topographical engineer who produced maps and atlases, both as the publisher and with Walling. In 1869, he lived in Danielsonville, Connecticut. During the 1870s, he was in Philadelphia. Frank A. Gray was evidently O. W. Gray's son. They were partners in the publishing business O.W.

Descripción de la tienda

Luke A Vavra was a map and book dealer using the trade name “Cartographic Arts” for about 25 years until illness forced him to give up the business a few years ago. He and his late wife Patricia had a web site and participated in Map Fairs and Book Fairs from Boston to Miami and west to Denver. In 2023 Luke re-established this business under the name Luke A Vavra Rare Maps and Books. The firm does not have a brick-and-mortar store but would not mind scheduled visitors.
