Have you come across any of the work of the Dutch explorer and cartographer, Adrian Block. He's credited with the early charting of Long Island and giving his name to Block Island. It was settled by English of Bradfords Massachusetts Colony in 1661 by 16 families some of the decendants still residing on the Island. There's quite the history of the Island. Some myth some true but all colorfull.

I'll look out for them. I dont think any of mine are by him though. I think his maps seem to be slightly before the GOAP so thats probably why I havent come across him.

PoD, good news- they arrived and are beautiful! thanks mate

hey pubsters, i'm going to take the liberty to describe my latest transaction with PoD.

The first papers I got from him arrived with no problems. The second set fell to the mailing gnomes and never arrived. We waited and waited, communicating our concerns on both sides. After time we finally admitted they were gone, we really were hoping that ash, turtles or some mythical creature had caused their delay. PoD bent over packwards to make sure he had a happy customer when it was the shipping, and not the product, that was the hiccup. Thanks again for a great product!

I am really Glad you like them and that they finally got there. They are actually the "lost" maps that have turned up as the replacement ones are still here. I had to wait until after that pesky volcanic dust cloud had moved before I shipped them so they were in the car ready to go out tomorrow ha ha.

All are on period correct linen and cotton rag paper and 18" x 24" in size $37

If you would like to save a little bit of money and arent to concerned about authenticity then I am now also doing all my charts and maps on modern parchment vellum paper which looks the part to the untrained eye. (all the examples in this post are printed on this paper) The maps printed on this paper are $24 (message me if you want the modern paper ones as they are only available on the pirate forums at the moment and not in my shop)

are there also period maps that show the currents and the winds? Making it possibloe to explain the audience (with period maps) how they used to sail from europe to the carribeans and back.

Like we discussed Here ?
