John Luffman (1775-1820) London map seller and engraver. His New Pocket Atlas contained fifty four curious circular county maps. Beneath the map is a type set giving background details of the county. Because the Atlas was so tiny, its mortality rate has been high. Thus these maps are now scarce. (Photo images through glass, so some reflection)
