Badeslade (Thomas & William Henry Toms). Chorographia Britanniae. Or a set of Maps of all the Counties in England and Wales, London, 1742, engraved title with left-hand margin skilfully extended, dedication, 4 general maps, 5 tables and 42 uncoloured engraved county maps, the contents shows evidence of cleaning and re-guarding, small repaired tear at head of dedication, a few minor spots, later endpapers, recent calf, spine with green morocco gilt label, 8vo (Qty: 1) Chubb CLXX; ESTC T165385.. The title page corresponds with Chubb's first edition, however, there are four known states of this edition. The second issue of this edition replaces the numbers '8' & '9' on the maps of Cambridge and Chesire, which had been omitted from the first state, and the fourth state has the addition of 'Price bound 6s' at the base of the title (the third state has an erroneous 'Price bound 5s'). This appears to be one of only three known copies of the fourth state.
