Wheat and Brun show a 1791 map of different title and smaller size that may have been the precursor of this 1811 map - both are derived from Howell's large map of Pennsylvania, first issued in 1792. This 1811 copy is the first edition in this format, with other editions in 1816 and 1817. Decorative vignettes surround the dedication in the upper right and the title in the lower right. In the lower left corner there is a view of the "Schuylkill permanent Bridge." Colored in outline, backed on thin linen and folded into red half leather marbled covered boards 15x10. |

This map was published after Eddy's death (see biography of Eddy in American Monthly Magazine and Critical Review, May, 1818). Eddy was deaf, and died young at 35, on December 22, 1817. He also published a map of the county 30 miles around New York City (circular) in 1811 (see our copy), and a map of the western part of New York State for the canal commissioners in 1811. An extraordinary map maker about whom little has been known. He planned an American Atlas and a Map of the State of New Jersey, both abandoned after his death (perhaps Tanner's American Atlas was somehow related to Eddy's proposed Atlas). Tanner lists the three New York maps as sources for his New York Map in his American Atlas and has only the highest praise for Eddy. This New York State map is remarkable for its clarity of execution and detail. New York state counties and other states with outline color. Maps is dissected into 16 sheets, and lays in a new burgundy cloth folding case 29x25 with "State Of New York J.H. Eddy 1818" stamped in gilt on the spine. |
