The plates for ‘Reuben Ramble’s Travels through the Counties of England’ were first issued as an exceedingly rare set of cards by Thomas Crabb in 1819. Then they appeared as the ‘New Miniature Atlas’ by Robert Miller in 1821 and by William Darton in 1822 and 1825. There most famous and desirable issue though is undoubtedly as the lithographic atlas by the topographer Reuben Ramble. Intended for children each county map is surrounded by historical and decorative depictions. Chubb 517.
