Daniel Crouch Rare Books is pleased to present our catalogue of the Jason C. Hubbard Collection. Jason Hubbard bought his first map in 1971. Since then, he has built up a collection of material relating to Japan, including not only maps of Japan, but also maps of the continent and neighboring countries, sea charts, and books and travel accounts. Because of the considerable breadth of the collection, the catalogue is split into three parts: pre-1800 maps of Japan; post-1800 maps of Japan and sea charts; maps of Asia, China and Tartary, the East Indies, regional maps of Japan and books.
