FOLGER SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY'S COLLECTION OF WARWICKSHIRE COUNTY MAPS Compiled by Leigh Anne Palmer, 2004

Using P.D.A. Harvey and Harry Thorpe's The Printed Maps of Warwickshire 1576-1900 (Warwick, 1959) as my primary reference, and consulting Yasha Beresiner's British County Maps Reference and Price Guide (Woodbridge, Suffolk, 1983), The British Museum Catalogue of Printed Maps, Charts, and Plans (London, 1967), as well as T. Chubb's The Printed maps in the atlases of Great Britain and Ireland, 1579-1870 (1927), I created a list of the loose sheet maps of Warwickshire county from 1579 to 1791 in the Folger's collection.

Because many of these maps were originally printed in English county atlases, the Folger may have multiple copies of a particular map in both loose sheet and bound formats. This list primarily represents the loose sheet maps in the collection. Where we did not have a loose sheet copy of a particular map, I checked if the Folger owned a copy that was printed in an English county atlas. I have not, however, examined each county atlas we have in the collection and included those bound maps of Warwickshire in this list. That effort, although useful to the collection in general, would help us enumerate how many of a particular map we have in the collection, but would most likely not produce many new Warwickshire maps to add to the list.

I have arranged this list in chronological order of first appearance. The Folger call number precedes each map's attributed surveyor, draughtsman, or engraver. Where the information was known, I included the title and imprint of the book in which a particular edition of the map was published.
