Game Maps
Whether alone or in teams, for pleasure or profit, sporting or seated, games have been an ever-present feature of every civilization. With multiple participants vying to achieve a goal by following a set of rules, games provide an outlet for the natural human instinct for competition without the risk incurred in, for example, battle. Indeed throughout history, many games have served as a microcosm of war, whether that involves taking down one’s opponent’s king, as in chess, taking turns to attack and defend, seen in all sorts of games from rugby to bridge, or racing to a certain destination, be it on foot or with a counter.
“We source the rarest, most unusual and quirky antique and vintage maps in the finest condition.”

The Cartography of Fictional Worlds
3 October 2024
With Frieze Masters 2024 fast approaching, Daniel Crouch Rare Books has been featured in Country Life. Huon Mallalieu writes:
“Daniel Crouch, the London antiquarian map dealer, has created an exhibition of the cartography of fictional worlds over 2,700 years, ‘featuring maps of such magical lands as Middle Earth, Lilliput, Oz… there and back again’.
“Tolkien’s Middle Earth as portrayed by Pauline Baynes in 1970 is key; as the author said: ‘I wisely started with a map, and made the story fit (generally with meticulous care for distances). The other way about lands one in confusions and impossibilities, and in any case, it is weary work to compose a map from a story.”
