Mount and Page: A New Chart of the Sea Coast of Scotland with the Islands thereof. London 1729
Map, Copper engraving, 47 x 58 cms, later hand-colour, closed split at foot of centrefold, blank verso.
The Mount & Page English Pilot atlases form a complex series, many of the charts being derived from Seller. According to Shirley, however, this chart first appears in the 1729 edition of Part 1, the Southern Navigation, and by 1743 (the next example of this atlas in the BL) the plate had the added inset: A plan of Holy Island and the Staples., Shirley, Maps in the Atlases of the BL M.M&P 1b.
