Tooley.
Ca. 1665-ca. 1735.
Holländsk bokhandlare. Han omtalas 1691 som 'maatematische instrumentmaaker' i Amsterdam där han två år senare blev bokhandlare. Hans affär omfattade även konst- och karthandel. Han gav 1697 ut 'Het nieu en compleet Pas-kaert-Boeck van de Noord- en Oostzee'. Ca 1700 gav han ut en atlas med 36 kartor och 1719 'Nieuwe groote Spiegel'. 1721 utannonserade han ett stort, nytt 'Paskaert van de Straats Davids
A mathematical and nautical instrument maker, Loots also published manuals on navigation. For a time he was in partnership with an engraver, A de Winter, and an author of text books on charts, Claes de Vries, who had ambitions to publish a very large sea atlas of some 200 charts but this was never completed on the scale contemplated. Some of their charts were sold to Gerard van Keulen and others were used in a sea atlas published in 1697. Charts by Loots also appear in a number of other pilot books and sea atlases of the time.

JACOB JACOB5Z (LOOTSMAN) (son) d. 1679
Holländsk kartograf. Han var boktryckare och bokhandlare. 1648 gav han ut 't'Nieuw groot Straets-boeck, inhoudende d'Middelantse Zee'. Efter sin död gav sonen Jacob Theunisz (se denne) ut 't'Nieuwe en vergroote Zeeboeck, dat is des Piloots ofte Lootsmans Zee-Spiegel, inhoud de Zee-kusten vande Noordsche, Oosterzee ende Westersche Schipvaert' (1653). Båda dessa atlaser kom senare i flera utgåvor.
Anthonie Jacobsz founded a printing and publishing business in Amsterdam in which he specialized in the production of pilot books and sea atlases. As he died at a comparatively early age most of the numerous editions of his works appeared after his death published by his sons, Jacob and Caspar, who took the name 'Lootsman' (sea pilot) to distinguish them from another printer of the name Jacobsz.
Following Blaeu and Colom, Anthonie Jacobsz was the most important compiler of sea charts in Amsterdam in the first half of the seventeenth century. In his new ZeeSpiegel issued in 1643 he increased the number of charts normally included in these books and enlarged them to folio size, which evidently proved popular. Editions in many forms appeared until 1715 and they were copied or reprinted by Pieter Goos, Hendrick Doncker and Jan Jansson, sometimes in competition with each other but usually in cooperation with the Lootsman brothers.
