{"title":"Carr, Joseph Lloyd","description":"\u003cp\u003eJ.L. (Joseph Lloyd) Carr (1912–1994) was a schoolteacher, novelist, and independent publisher who ran the Quince Tree Press from his home in Kettering. Though best known for his novel A Month in the Country, he was equally dedicated to designing and publishing large pictorial maps and small books. Between 1966 and 1976, Carr created 42 decorative maps, primarily of the 39 historic English counties (pre-1974), plus maps of Wales, England \u0026amp; Wales, and Beadle County, South Dakota. His maps were whimsical and non-navigational, linking local buildings, figures, folklore, and recipes to place. Most were issued in limited editions of 250–982 copies, often hand-coloured by his wife Sally. Carr frequently sent out uncoloured proof copies on thin paper to potential resellers. Although he allocated ISBNs to many maps, none bear them. His \"History of the QTP\" (1987) documented editions and collaborators. Today, Carr’s maps are held by institutions such as the British Library, National Library of Wales, University of Liverpool, Yale, and the Library of Congress. His work is prized for its charm, eccentricity, and local detail. In his words, Carr was a “back-bedroom publisher” whose literary and cartographic legacy remains quietly celebrated by a small but loyal following.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"suffolk-miscellany-pictorial-county-map-by-j-l-joseph-lloyd-carr-1975-p-9-000902","title":"Suffolk miscellany pictorial county map by J.L.

L. Carr, drawn during 1943 while the artist was serving with the Royal Air Force in West Africa. Undated, but believed to have been self-published in 1973 from his home press at 27 Mill Dale Road, Kettering, Northamptonshire. The map belongs conceptually to the celebrated series of county and national maps he produced between the 1960s and early 1980s. Deliberately non-navigational, the map functions as a visual anthology of national memory rather than a work of practical geography. It is densely populated with portraits, ships, buildings, coats of arms, historical scenes, and marginal texts, weaving together history, literature, religion, folklore, and anecdote in Carr’s characteristically antiquarian and highly personal style. Biblical quotations from Psalm 90 and John Donne’s “No man is an island” frame the composition, lending the map a pronounced memorial and elegiac tone. Scattered throughout are aphorisms such as those included to an Italian traveller's observation that “England is the paradise of women, a purgatory for men and hell for horses,” and a Frenchman's remark that “in England they have sixty religions and only one sauce,” alongside an ironic quotation attributed to John Milton, suggesting divine favour toward the English. These are balanced by homely and comic vignettes, most notably a mock recipe proclaiming that \"Roast beef is the best meat for an Englishman.\" Naval lore and maritime epitaphs feature prominently. Printed and distributed privately, the map forms part of the distinctive body of work associated with Carr’s Quince Tree Press, now recognised as a singular contribution to post-war British pictorial cartography. Combining humour, nostalgia, and quiet commemoration, A Map of England \u0026amp; Wales stands as Carr’s most ambitious composition, inviting close reading as much as visual exploration.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52094041194843,"sku":"P-8-006466","price":230.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-8-006466a.jpg?v=1769108458"},{"product_id":"the-county-of-cheshire-pictorial-miscellany-map-by-joseph-lloyd-carr-1982-p-8-006510","title":"The County of Cheshire pictorial miscellany map by Joseph Lloyd Carr 1982","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e'The County of Cheshire'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe second edition of J.
