<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 4306914, member: 33&quot;]I found this from Christie&#039;s. It is for two Pigot&#039;s titles bound into one cover. Seems to indicate that the map was a folding map published in Pigot&#039;s Commercial Directory of London. But that directory doesn&#039;t have a date listed. It is bound with a directory of Scotland from 1825-1826. <a href="https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-4917723" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-4917723" rel="nofollow">https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-4917723</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I am traveling and currently using a very old computer that will not show me the images from Christie&#039;s. Don&#039;t know if they will help. Based on this, the theory is that the map you have was a folding map bound into a directory, and that it fell apart from repeated folding and unfolding through the years, and that somebody removed it from the directory and mounted it on a linen backing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
