Below is a list of my stock of old and antiquarian maps and prints of Antigua for sale. Please note that images show the items with margins cropped to keep file sizes small. If the actual item has closely cropped margins this is noted in the description.
Postage and packing is extra but is usually less than £5 even for overseas orders. You will receive an invoice from me showing the actual cost of postage before you can make payment.
There is a listing of Antigua maps covering the period from 1689-1899 written by R.V. Tooley which I sometimes have in stock.
