Smyth was the first Surveyor General of Canada and in 1799 wrote "A Short Topographical Description of His Majesty's Province of Upper Canada, In North America" which was sold with the map. This map is the first edition of the "Smyth Series" which went through 13 separate editions to 1858 (see Farrell, Explorations in the History of Canadian Mapping, pp152-154). Smyth's name was dropped from all editions after 1835. Faden published the map until 1818, Wyld published it after 1831. Longest publishing history of any map of the region (Farrell). See our 1818 and the Wyld 1838 for later versions. See Sabin 85205 for more on Smyth and the map. Map has outline color by hand, is dissected into 16 sections and mounted on linen. Folds into a new gray cloth folding case 23.5x16 with "Upper Canada D.W. Smyth 1800" stamped in gold on the spine. Relief shown by hachures. |
