Very rare. Lowndes only notices one copy of the map on 24 sheets, as having occurred for sale, the White Knights, which fetched £2. 3s: he does not mention this alphabetical Index and Key map, and from the importance and value even at his time of early maps of London, it may be safely asserted that he would have done so if he had heard of it; but the probability is that this Index may be rarer than the map itself. The Key map is in reality a good map of London, as it has all the Streets, Lanes, etc. marked and named.
