Map Collectors' Circle contains what is still the broadest reaching series of cartographic bibliographies. The series was initiated, edited, and published by the most highly regarded map expert of the 20th Century, Mr. Ronald V. Tooley.

This lot includes five volumes compiled by Rodney W. Shirley on maps of the British Isles published from 1477-1650. Together, the five volumes list 670 maps with 88 black & white plates. The five volumes were later compiled into one hardcover volume, Early Printed Maps of the British Isles - A Bibliography 1477-1650 (published 1980).
