Samuel Boulton’s 1787 map of Africa, published by Robert Sayer as Africa, with all its States, Kingdoms, Republics, Regions, Islands, &ca., is one of the most important 18th-century maps of Africa. It is a monumental work of late 18th-century commercial cartography that incorporates all of the scientific knowledge of Africa at the time and blends geography with trade and ethnography. It follows d’Anville’s earlier restrained style, depicting well-charted coasts and leaving interiors cautiously annotated, while ocean currents, an Azores inset, and especially a detailed inset of the Gold Coast underscore its maritime and commercial purpose. Long textual panels along the margins describe Africa’s natural products, trade, and customs, effectively turning the map into a handbook for merchants and readers interested in exploration and commerce. Published in the very year Britain’s abolitionist movement formally organized, the map captures the stark tension of its moment: the height of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, meticulously documented through forts and trading posts, on the eve of growing humanitarian opposition. Its enduring influence was reinforced by subsequent reissues in atlases and by Laurie & Whittle after Sayer’s death, preserving it as one of the key late-Enlightenment depictions of the African continent.

This map is a reproduction of a historical map that is now in the public domain. It has been selected for its aesthetic appeal and historical interest and carefully restored and reproduced to preserve its original detail and character.  There may be marks and fold lines visible which add to the authentic look.  The map is printed on 230gsm heavyweight coated paper with a matte finish.  Most old maps were printed on uncoated rag or wood pulp papers and therefore a matte finish best represents the original map.

Great Value and very durable
Style: Small Ball, Size: 1 Count
Very durable! We have purchased this for our new lab puppy. Highly recommend them. We have bought them before for our retrievers and it has been one of the longest lasting toys they own. Which says a lot because toys get torn up fast in our house. Definitely a good value and the material is easy on their teeth. Also it keeps ours busy for a while.

Aussie Approved
Size: Large, Color: Blue
I got a knock off one of these originally and man I should have just stuck with the real thing. My dog destroyed the other one in about 4 seconds. My dog loves this one and has not been able to tear it up, he prefers to just push it around after he gets all the treat out of it which is hilarious to watch. The quality is amazing and it is so easy to clean without leaving a smelly odor on it. It fits in my freezer perfectly and also is soft but firm so I do not have to worry about my dog hurting his teeth. For reference I have an Aussie and I got the large one which is perfect for his size (60lbs). My pet prefers this one over the last one for sure since this one actually keeps him entertained.

Awesome enrichment toy!
Size: Large, Color: Green, Size: Large, Color: Green
These are awesome! My dogs love them and keep them occupied for 30-60 mins so I can make and enjoy my coffee in peace before work. They are very easy to clean, but as others have mentioned, they can get stuck. I had to take a pliers to get one of them unscrewed. Hopefully that’s not a constant issue. I do wish they were more durable since there were a lot of teeth marks in them after the first use, so I upgraded to the black super chewer one. I’m happy I gave these a try and feel they are worth the money, especially for high energy dogs who get bored easily.

Best toy/treat! (Use oil on inner screw to open)
Size: Large, Color: Green
My dogs love these! This gives them a dedicated 20-40min of dog joy. They often get up halfway thru and switch but whatever makes them happy. They do get STUCK! And can be impossible to open. I now use a dot of olive oil on each level of the screw and then twist it in and out a couple times to distribute the lube so its possible to open when they are done. I find it very important to collect them immediately when they are done and open back up for cleaning. Do not let them dry as it will be very difficult to open.

These are must haves for dog owners!
Size: Large, Color: Pink
These things have saved my sanity! I have two dogs and we use these at least two to three times per week. They are high quality and last thru heavy chewers. We spread peanut butter inside for a quick treat when clipping nails, or make our own mix of Greek yogurt, dry oatmeal, diced carrots, a little pumpkin, and a bit of diced apple, mix it up and freeze it in the Pupsicle mold. That way we have a bunch ready to go and aren’t buying expensive refills. The colors are adorable, the pupsicle is durable, and the dogs LOVE them. FYI - it’s a good idea to use a little olive or avalado oil on the threads when closing them up - it makes life so much easier when screwing then on and off. We throw ours into the dishwasher.
