'Suffolk'
This is the third edition of J.L. Carr’s pictorial miscellany map of Suffolk, published from his home press at 27 Mill Dale Road, Kettering, in 1975. One of 775 sheets, this example is hand-initialled by Carr and numbered 167 in the edition. It features Carr’s distinctive sun-face colophon and is dedicated to the Suffolk eccentric Henry Kersey of Ipswich. Carr reported four editions of his Suffolk map in The History of the Quince Tree Press (1987), though only three have been confirmed. Carr’s county maps, issued between 1966 and 1982, are whimsical and non-navigational, designed to link local history & anecdotes, figures, and folklore to place. Suffolk is one of the few counties for which Carr created multiple editions, likely reflecting its popularity.
