John Wallis (died 1818), with his sons John Wallis Jr. and Edward Wallis, was the most prolific publisher of board games of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He was also a bookseller, map/chart seller, print seller, music seller, and cartographer.
The company occupied a number of sites in London, including:
- 16 Ludgate Street (under the name "Map Warehouse") from 1775.
- 13 Warwick Square (under the name "Instructive Toy Warehouse") from 1805.
- 42 Skinner Street, Snow Hill. (this address was mainly used by Edward Wallis when working alone or when working with his father, in those cases publishing as "Wallis and Son" or "John & Edward Wallis")
- 188 The Strand (this address being used solely by John Wallis Jnr)[1]
