London: Baldwin & Cradock, 1836. Steel engraving, 33.5 x 40.5 cms, engraved by Benjamin Rees Davies after William Barnard Clarke, original hand colour, view of Stockholm on a scroll bottom left, cut close, as usual with this map (narrow upper margin, very edge of vignette cropped bottom left), short closed tear, top right, blank verso. The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge was founded in 1826 with the high-minded aim of making 'useful' information available to self-taught members of the working and lower middle classes. Some of the material was decidedly abstruse, subscribers fell away and the Society was wound up in 1848; however, the series of 209 maps published over a 14 year period from 1829 onwards were highly praised for their superior quality, accuracy and aesthetic appeal and remain an outstanding achievement.
