Stamford Raffles
Sir Stamford Raffles, born in 1781, was a British statesman best known for founding modern Singapore. In 1819, Raffles arrived in Singapore, recognizing its strategic importance as a trading post. Negotiating with local rulers, he established a British port, transforming the island into a vital hub for commerce and trade.
During his time in Singapore, Raffles implemented policies that promoted free trade, attracting merchants from around the world. He laid out plans for the city's development, emphasizing urban planning and education. Raffles' vision and administrative skills were crucial in setting the foundation for Singapore's growth into a major global port.
Raffles left Singapore in 1824, but his legacy endures. Often celebrated as the father of modern Singapore, his contributions paved the way for the island's transformation into a thriving metropolis.

With this map of Mt Cervino and Mont Rosa we say goodbye to Italy, at least for the time being, to shift our attention to Great Britain. This map is a real gem in its definition and colouring, the original sheet dates back to 1928 and was produced by the Touring Club Italiano cartographic office.

An extremely attractive example of Jacques-Nicolas Bellinโ€™s 1758 map of Saint Lucia (St. Lucia) or Sainte Lucie in the West Indies. St. Lucia is considered among the most beautiful of the Windward Isles. This map covers this spectacular Caribbean island in considerable detail showing mountains, cities, and forests in Bellinโ€™s distinctive profile style. Good harbors are marked with miniature anchors. A decorative rococo style title cartouche appears in the upper left quadrant. eBay item number 234889214538 #stlucia #bellinmap #stlucie #stluciamap #oldmap #map #cartography #maps #vintagemap #oldmaps #antiquemaps #vintage #vintagemaps #antiquemap #raremaps #history #thcentury #geography #antique #antiquemapsandprints #mapart #art #raremap #travel #alteagallery #worldmap #mapcollecting #mapmaker #antiques #oldmapsandprints https://www.instagram.com/p/CoYNt0EISeM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Love this old #atlas of #spain I found a couple years ago at a local plant store of all places. I was there looking at plants and they had all these old big #books for sale, and this was one of them. It was only like 1 euro. So I couldnโ€™t pass it up. #spain #maps #map #oldmap #espaรฑa #madrid #andalucia showing location of #gibraltar and #thestraitofgibraltar #straitofgibraltar #estrechodegibraltar (at La Lรญnea de la Concepciรณn, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmXPpkzsFl2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A personal favorite. Presenting the El Viejo Continente Salomon wood cigar box. Painted a shining gold, it's great for modern day cartographers, charting their own course! It even comes with removable dividers that are great for art and/or office supplies and much more! ๐Ÿ—บโ›ต

For the Sake of Bread? The State of Main Street in the 1780s
By: Lisa Timmerman, Executive Director
ย On 11/19/1787, Prince William County men and women petitioned the Virginia General Assembly with a few key requests. Keep merchant activity limited to identified merchant houses on Main Street, condemn any unwholesome provisions, prevent nuisances and obstructions, and provide good quality bread.
โ€œIt is found that evils have arisen to the Town as well as the Country, from the Country people and Negroes being permitted to bring provisions and carry to private Houses or hawk about the Streets, and they conceive it would prevent frauds and secure better the health of the Inhabitants that the Market people should be confined to a certain House, which has lately been built for the purpose of a Market House โ€“ they likewise beg leave to represent, that they have been greatly imposed upon in the weight and quality of the bread made by the Bakers, and that whilst their Sister Towns are receiving twenty eight ounces of good bread for four pence they are paying the same price for Sixteen ounces, frequently of very indifferent bread โ€“ they likewise beg leave to represent the necessity of repairing and keeping in good order the Main Street in the Town of Dumfries (being the great road leading from North to South), of a night watch being established for the protection of the Inhabitants and the security of their property, and the prevention and removals of all obstructions and nuisances from the said Town & Streets โ€“ To the ends that such grievances be removed and regulations made, it is submitted to the wisdom and consideration of the House, either to reinvest the Trustees of the said Town or else to require a certain number of the Inhabitants to be chosen annually by the freeholders and Housekeepers, with power to Answer the above purposes, and that in either case they shall have powers to confine the market people to certain Market Houses and to consider all bad and unwholesome provisions, to regulate the above and quality of bread and condense the bad, to prevent and remove nuisances, and to make a reasonable and Small Assessment on property and by [poll] to make and keep the said Main Street in good Order and to establish and support a night Watch โ€“ It is judged best to vest such powers in the Trustees, it is submitted to the Wisdom of the House, whether in all cases of vacancies by Death or removal of any of the Trustees, such vacancies should not be filled up by the voice of a majority of the freeholders and Housekeepers of the said Town, and that only a freeholder or Housekeeper an Inhabitant of the said Town shall in any event be eligible โ€“ and Your petitioners shall ever prayโ€“โ€
The original trustees of the Town in 1749 were John Graham, Peter Hedgeman, William Fitzhugh, George Mason, Joseph Blackwell, Richard Blackburn, and Thomas Harrison. By 1787, we find support for the trustees by over sixty men and one woman: William Carr, [A] Henderson, James Muschet, John Gibson, Philip Dawe, Sarah Williams, Richard Graham, William Linton, William McDaniel, Alexander Lithgory, John Linton, Timothy Brundige, Fran Ballendine, George Graham, to name a few.

But how do we go from securing Main Street to โ€œindifferent breadโ€? While the petitioners in Dumfries fixated on regulations, safety measures, and possible preventive actions for the merchants and their heavily traveled routes, they could look to their โ€œsister townโ€ of Alexandria to see how they addressed the problem of flour and bread regulation. One month prior, on 10/19/1787, merchants in Alexandria petitioned for a change in flour inspection laws. James Keith, John Murray, John Dunlop and 80 other merchants appeared with a request to make Virginia like Philadelphia, which, according to them, exported the best flour in America due to itsโ€™ rigid inspection. โ€œThat the city of Philadelphia has for a great Number of years carried on a very extensive Flour Trade and the Flour shipped from that Port has been generally held in higher Estimation in all foreign markets than the Flour shipped from any other part of the Continentโ€ฆโ€ They proposed granting an inspector the power to nominate and appoint deputies and inspector of bread. Interestingly, the petition from Alexandria includes the following reason for one inspector, โ€œWhereas when there is but a single person to perform the Duties and becomes responsible for the [Inadversaries] or Frauds which may be committed, the Dread and Apprehension of a Detection will keep up an attention which will rarely be procured by any other meansโ€ฆโ€
Their different emphasis and approaches to quality assurance highlight the differing society and geography. The petitioners from Dumfries focused on their prejudices against โ€œthe Country people and Negroes,โ€ who they blamed for lowering the reputation of merchants and ultimately jeopardizing the quality of the products. By trying to regulate the street itself, they acknowledged the importance of the thoroughfare, especially at a time when Quantico Creek was showing signs of strain. Alexandriaโ€™s petitioners also worried about the โ€œevilsโ€ of society, but were more engrossed with the consequences of poor inspection and fraudulent workers. โ€œIt is unnecessary for your Petitioners to point out to the Honorable House the Benefits โ€“ which a County will enjoy or the Evils it will sustain from the good or ill Reports respecting the Quality of the Staple.โ€ The following year, the merchants from Alexandria petitioned again noting potential dire consequences of the act approved on 11/23/1787. โ€œThat the good designs of the Legislature in passing the Act for Regulating the Inspection of Flour & Bread on the 23d of November will be entirely Defeated, without speedy remedy to the last paragraph of said Act for the recovery of the penalties and forfeitures. Particularly as respect deficient weight of flour & Bread brought to market to sale, an enormity common to at least one with part of all the flour brought to this market.โ€
By 1787, we find the wealthy landowners in and around Dumfries actively seeking a solution to the silting creek. Cuthbert Bullitt and others petitioned for the โ€œTown of Newport,โ€ which would have occupied the Bullitt lands on Possum Point around the mouth of Quantico Creek. The idea was to help attract the river trade and lessen the economic impact from Quantico Creek. While Newport never materialized beyond documents, we can study the various ways the residents of Dumfries responded to perceived adversaries. As tobacco fell out of favor and other goods advanced, we find people in the 1780s petitioning the general assembly demanding delicious and competitive bread.
