My colleagues added a card to the collection that may have saved lives in WWII! Underneath the Queen Consort is part of a map of Southern Germany, which British and Canadian seamen may have used to escape a POW camp!

Coming with us to Firsts London is this scarce first edition of Loggan's celebrated work, containing magnificent views of Cambridge University.

‘Cantabrigian Illustrate’ was published in 1690, the same year Loggan (1634-1692) became Cambridge University's official engraver.

Coming with us to @thewintershownyc, we have The National Game of the Star Spangled Banner - "probably the earliest game to utilise a map of the United States" 🇺🇸

The show opens on Saturday 24th January. We'll look forward to your visit!

We're excited to offer a select collection of printed, proof, and manuscript maps and charts from the Freycinet Family Archives.

Celebrated explorers Henri and Louis Freycinet were responsible for charting large swathes of the Western Australian coastline and Tasmania.

Spot the difference 🌑

The @ft_weekend have released an article on London's Science Museum's Versailles exhibition, featuring Jean-Domenique Cassini's map of the moon.

We thought looked great next to our own lunar map by Cassini's great grandson, published in 1787.
