Collins Bartholomew Map Shop on Mapseeker

The Collins Bartholomew Shop has now opened on Mapseeker’s website. Over 400 map images are now available to purchase. The map shop has a large, expanding selection of reproduction historical maps, plans and surveys, spanning the globe. Our collection is available to order on-line in a range of products, produced to the highest quality standards.




Taken from the
Collins Bartholomew Historic Map Archive, the maps are arranged into 12 super categories which are then divided into sub categories. Many map samples are zoomable to reveal close up detail and include a detailed map description.





















Examples:
The collection has many rare seventeenth century Blaeu county and country maps.









Other stunning maps include the Map of the British Empire c1851. This map of the British Empire is framed by idealized images of friendly encounters between British colonists and indigenous inhabitants from four different parts of the globe. Click on the link above for a zoomable map.




New maps are regurlarly being added to the range - a large number of old railway maps will be uploaded soon, to expand this category. It is worth revisiting the website or registering to become a member and receive news on new additions.

Once selected, the map can be purchased as a photographic or giclée fine art print, available in a range of sizes and frame stlyes.
