    Hi, I wonder if anyone could help me with some links where I can research this map donated to the RSPCA, I can find lots of paper maps but this one seems to be a sheet of copper.

    "The Countie Pallatine of Lancaster Described and Divided into Hundreds 1610"

    Any help would be really appreciated

    Hi Martin. Not old, I'm afraid. Those were made in the 60s as decorator pieces. 1960s, not 1660s. ;)

    Yes, an original John Speed map has been projected onto a light sensitive acid resist, then the plate etched to produce the design. A modern decorative item.

    I was thinking decorator print too as soon as it came up. Pop it up on the wall and someone will nab it.

    011.JPG Hi,
    I have a similar one of Stuttgart Germany. It is on an oak base. Found it in a flea market for 2 bucks.

    Hi again Martin, were you able to get any info from RSPCA on the watch fob/wax seal with what we thought was an RSPCA theme?
