[DCRM-L] Maps in "Révolution de l'Amérique. Par M. l'abbé Raynal ..."

[Will Evans]

Oksana,



Our copy, which lists Davis and Gosse in the imprint, does not contain the
maps. But the record in our catalog, leftover from retrocon, contains this
note:



Another issue, with same paging as the present edition, has imprint:
Londres, L. Davis, 1781.



Perhaps the issue with the imprint limited to L. Davis contains maps? If
the imprints on both or your copies match, I guess I would consider the
copy with the maps as extra-illustrated.



Hope this helps.



Best,



Will

Hello:



I'm cataloging a newly acquired 1781 edition of *Révolution de l'Amérique.* Par
M. l'abbé Raynal...

Imprint: A Londres, Chez Lockyer Davis, Holbourn, & se vend a la Haye, chez
P.F. Gosse, Libraire de la Cour., MDCCLXXXI.

xvi, 171, [1] pages : 2 maps ; 19 cm

The two maps are "Plan de la Ville de Boston" (at page 20) and hand-colored
"Carte de la Nouvelle Angleterre" at end. Our other copy with this imprint
has no maps and measures 22 cm. Other then that our two copies are
identical. I sifted through numerous records for this edition in OCLC
Connexion (unpleasant, cumbersome task), but discovered no mentioning of
the maps.



Is anyone aware of the two folded maps being present in this edition?



Thank you very much,

Oksana.
