[ACCESSWIRE]

SCOTLAND, UK / ACCESSWIRE / March 15, 2021 / Established Titles recently unveiled their newest item for sale, a 17th-century map of Scotland created by famed mapmaker John Speed.

Established Titles is a company that primarily sells Ladyship or Lordship titles packs that come with dedicated land in Scotland. They have three main Title packages for sale, the Lordship Pack, the Ladyship Pack, and the Couple Title Pack. Each Title Pack includes one square foot of dedicated land on a private estate in Wigtownshire, Scotland. In addition to the land, all purchases come with a printable certificate featuring a crest, which makes it an ideal gift for anyone, from history buffs to those with family ties to Scotland.

The map, entitled The Kingdome of Scotland, dates back to 1611 and was created by one of the most famous mapmakers of the early modern period, John Speed. John Speed was an English cartographer who published this rare map of Scotland as part of a series he created called The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine. The series included not only this general map of Scotland but also the first set of individual county maps of England and Wales, along with a map of Ireland.

The colourful and topographical map of Scotland features a detailed look at the different regions of Scotland at the time and is widely regarded as the most decorated early map of the country. It also includes unique portraits of King James I (the Sixth of Scotland), Queen Anna, and their sons.

The map retails for $70 but is currently on sale for just $45. The physical product has been reproduced with permission from The National Library of Scotland. It would make a lovely gift and can even serve as art, as it can be easily framed and hung on a wall.
