Blueback charts
Blueback nautical charts began appearing in London in the late 18th century and are known for their distinctive blue paper backing.
The backing, a commonly available blue manila paper was a practical way to reinforce the chart. Publishers who published blueback charts are Mount and Page, Robert Sayer, John Hamilton Moore, Robert Blachford, James Imray, William Heather, John William Norie, Charles Wilson, David Steel, R. H. Laurie, and John Hobbs, among others.
Bluebacks became so popular that chart makers outside of England, including America, Netherlands, Scandinavia, France, Germany, Russia, and Spain produced them until the late 19th century.
