SPEED, John.

Origin: London, (William Humble), 1610-46.

Engraved by Jodocus Hondius. With inset plan of Bedford. The imprint remains unchanged from an earlier edition and reads George Humble as publisher, although this example has no text on the verso and was probably published by William Humble in 1646. The lack of text is normally associated with editions published during the English Civil Wars to be carried in a saddle-bag, rolled and bound at the side, although this example has signs of a centrefold. An uncommon edition.

Condition: Coloured, possibly original; short split at centre, top and bottom in the margins, but not at centrefold, now expertly repaired, minor marginal soiling and short nicks to the edges, small hole or paper fault repaired and filled in the area of the cartouche, hardly visible, otherwise a very good example.

Origin: London, John Sudbury & George Humble, 1610-16, Latin text edition.

It is even more difficult to find examples in original colour.

Condition: Fine original colour; some oxidisation of the original colour, particularly the green, this has caused some discolouration and minor cracking in some areas, this has been expertly repaired. Some small holes visible when held up to the light, short centrefold split (repaired), other minor discolouration and soiling, otherwise a good example.
