WE SELL ONLY ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MAPS - NOT REPRODUCTIONS


Title: District of Tanjore.

Description: This is a nice example of the 1854 map of the District of Tanjore in the modern day state of Tamil Nadu, India, issued by Pharoah and Company. It covers from Mimbesel (Mimisal) north to Pazhaiyar or the entrance of the Kollidam River. Includes the towns of Tanjore (Thanjavur), Pattacotte (Pudukkottai), Manargudi, etc. The map also notes important roads, lakes, rivers and topography.

The Tajore district came into existence when the Tanjavur Maratha ruler ceded his kingdom to the British East India Company. Originally the center of the Chola Dynasty and became one of the richest districts of the Madras Presidency. It is home to many of the temples built during the Chola Dynasty and is famous for the Tanjore style paintings.

This map was engraved by J. and C. Walker and issued as plate no. 3 by Pharoah and Company in their 1854 Atlas of Southern India.

Size: Printed area measures 10.5 inches high by 8.5 inches wide.

Condition: Very good. Minor foxing.




Shipping: Shipping rates are not negotiable. Items are shipped within three business days of receiving payment. We are happy to consolidate shipping where possible. The following shipping options are available:
1. FedEx Overnight (45 USD). USA Only. Signature Required.
2. FedEx Ground or Home Delivery (15 USD). USA Only. 1 - 10 days. If your address is a P.O. Box and cannot ship FedEx we will ship USPS Priority and, while we ship promptly, recent postal personnel cutbacks mean that delivery may take time. Signature Required.
3. FedEx International or DHL International EXPRESS (45 USD).
4. We can use your FedEx Account.

Customs: International buyers are responsible for paying duty and taxes on delivery. DHL or FedEx will contact the buyer by telephone to arrange tax payment if it is levied. Duty varies by country and we cannot predict the amount you will be charged. Some countries are duty free, others are not. Typically, a customs duty and/or VAT tax will be assessed on all parcels to continental Europe. Sometimes duty or tax is due in China, but is seems very random. Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Taiwan have never assessed duty on a map we shipped. Maps shipped to the UK should be duty free as educational materials, but from time to time duty of 5% is assessed incorrectly by the UK customs agents.

Insurance: All shipments are insured privately against loss and damage. All of our shipments require a signature for insurance purposes.

If you have any questions please feel free to email us through eBay.
