"A Map or Chart of the Road of Love and Harbour of Marriage". Published 12th May 1794 by Laurie & Whittle, 53 Fleet Street, London. Engraved and hand-coloured Georgian fantasy matrimony marriage map, containing Directions for Sailing into Felicity Harbour.

"Directions for Sailing into Felicity Harbour. Fair Virture must your Pilot be; Your Compass, Prudence, Peace your Sea; Your Anchor, Hope your Stoage Love; (To your True Course still constant prove) Your Ballast, Sense, and Reason pure, Must ever be your Cynosure."

"A MAP or CHART of the ROAD of LOVE, and HARBOUR of MARRIAGE. Laid down from the latest and best Authorites & regulated by my own Observations; The whole adjusted to the Latitude 51°30 N by T.P. Hydrographer; to his Majesty Hymen, and Prince Cupid. NB The Long. is recon'd from ye Meridian of Teens."

"From the Sea of common Life, we enter the Road of Love thro Blindman's Straits, between two noted Capes or Headlands, steering first for Money, Lust, and sometimes Virtue, but many Vessels endeavouring to make the latter are lost in the Whirlpool of Beauty; from this Road are many Outlets, yet some Mariners neither steer through these, nor continue their Voyage but come to their Moorings at Fastasleep Creek. Those who proceed reach Cape Ceremony, pass in the Harbour of Marriage through Fruition Straits, and touch at Cape Ecstasy; care must be taken to keep still to the Starboard, lest we run upon sunken rocks which lye about Cape Repentance; a good Pilot will also keep clear of the Rocks of Jealousy & Cuckoldom Bay and at least get into that of Content; some have past pleasant Straits and arrived safe at Felicity Harbour; a Monsoon constantly blows from Fruition Straits quite up the Road, which renders a Passage back impracticable; a Tornado also arises sooner or later in these Parts and drives all Shipping tho moor'd at Content & even Felicity itself, thro the Gulf of Death, the only Outlet, terminating in the Lake of Rest."

Matrimonial maps are spoof maps first known from 18th century England, and became common in 19th century Europe. They depicted states of emotion and stages in relations as mock locations and geographical features in amusing maps, sometimes as detailed as genuine. This map published in London by Laurie & Whittle represents one of the earlier examples, engraved and hand-coloured, and complete with elaborate detail and witty rhymed advise for travellers.

Laurie & Whittle was a British publisher of maps, atlases and prints, founded by Robert Laurie and James Whittle.

This poster is a high quality "giclée" reproduction of a restored antique original, custom-printed on Standard Single-weight Matt Coated art paper 140gsm or  Heavyweight Matt Coated art paper 230gsm (more of a thin card density), or superb Epson Matt Canvas 320gsm, according to your choice. We use the latest UltraChromeHDX pigment inks which guarantee 60 years of colour  permanence (up to 200 years fade-proof for colour prints).  This poster is suitable for mounting and framing, as well as direct display on a wall.

This high-resolution, museum-grade fine art print is produced from a unique restored image.

Not bad, wish it was more durable

My Australian Shepard loved this toy! However, it is NOT VERY DURABLE as advertised. He ripped off a leg within 20 minutes of getting the toy.

GREAT FOR MY LITTLE ADOPTED DOG!
Color: 6 pack
These little soft dog toys are wonderful for small to medium sized dogs. I recently rescued a dog who had never seen a toy, nor did she know how to play with them and these are perfect. She is a 13 pound half Chihuahua/terrier mix, and she loves to play with these little toys. They’re cute to me and she likes them so that makes me happy.

Cost effective option to find what kind of toys you new small pup will enjoy.
Color: 12 PACK PUPPY TOYS
This was a great puppy toy assortment. It is great because it has different types so you can figure out what types of toys your new pup will enjoy. This package is only suitable for small dogs. Also, I do t think they would be good for aggressive cheers. But if you are looking for a cost effective bunch of small new puppy toys this is perfect. There was no smell, the sound of squeaker were average high pitch, soft and moderately durable, design and appearance were generic. Not high quality but a good assortment. Not suitable for long term use IMO.
