In den WarenkorbSquare folio, 600 by 600mm (23½ by 23½ inches), 42 sheets, including 34 larger and 8 smaller sheets (40 with contemporary hand colour; 2 â" B&W); some light soiling. Contemporary calf over brown cloth, gilt lettering to upper cover; slightly rubbed, corners bumped. A large manuscript topographic map of the Georgian capital Tbi…lisi. The Caucasus Topographical Bureau was established in 1853, and yet active mapping of the region began only after 1866, when Iyeronim Stebnitskiy (1832-1897) was appointed head of the Bureau. Work in the region was first undertaken in the northern Caucasus before progressing to the south. The agency's efforts were interrupted by the Russo-Turkish War in 1877 â" 1878, when most of its employees were relocated to the basin of the Black Sea, charged with the task of researching the territories newly occupied by the Russian army.  The plan offered here was produced following the end of the war, when the Bureau was able to return to its routine work. It is drawn on 42 sheets to a scale of 1:2000 and shows the whole city of Tiflis (now Tbilisi), centering on the Mt'k'vari River, with all the topographical details, including the relief, streets and buildings. The sheets are numbered with corresponding rows and columns so that they can be assembled into a single, large wall map. This manuscript plan is almost identical to the "Plan of the City of Tiflis with Surroundings" published by Il'in in Saint-Petersburg in 1887 and was likely used as the basis for this later work. Russian manuscript plans of this scale and quality are very rare, especially in good condition and largely complete, as here. Produced for official use, the majority of them remained in state archives and libraries.  Istoricheskiy ocherk deyatelnosti korpusa voennykh topografov v [â¦] v 1855 â" 1880 gg. (Skt. Peterburg, 1880), p.74.

Korea is labelled as Chaoxian (??), the term commonly used in China at the time. Taken together with the naïve style of calligraphy and the note that it was produced at a middle school, Puyang Zhongxue (????) in Henan Province, shortly after the Korean War, it is likely that the map was made by a student, possibly named Guo Renwen (???), whose name appears at the lower right. The faint yellow numbers 1?5 painted on the map may refer to a legend or explanatory key that is no longer present.

Booth's Canada Atlantic Railroad, the worlds longest privately owned company, was sold to the Grand Trunk in 1905 for $14 million. Booth launched its construction in 1879, to speed his lumber to markets in northeastern American, via…the Central Vermont Railway. The City of Ottawa thus found itself with a direct link to Boston. He later expanded the system west to Georgian Bay; this branch, which was complete in 1896, was known as the Ottawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound Railway. The whole system to Alburg, Vermont was then amalgamated as the Canada Atlantic Railway. (Trinnell. J.R. Booth).

Hakodate served as a v…ital hub for trade between Hokkaido and mainland Japan, particularly Osaka. Three Kitamae cargo ships, identifiable by their distinctive bow tassels, are illustrated in the bay; these ships transported goods along the Japanese coast.

In den WarenkorbSoft cover. Good. Some edge wear and scuffing. Laid down on card. Size 12 x 9.5 Inches. This is a proof print of E. M. Cody's 1928 pictorial map of Paris that appeared on the cover of Fairchild's International Magazine , a trade journal for the fashion industry. A humorous work, it satirizes Americans' attitudes towards the Fren…ch capital, particularly those of the American fashion elite who flooded Paris in September when the winter Haute Couture collections were released. A Closer Look Despite the joke compass at left, the map is oriented roughly towards the north, with the River Seine and the Eiffel Tower (labeled Citroen) in the foreground. Landmarks, restaurants, bars, hotels, and other recognizable locations are labeled throughout, with mock Anglicized names, such as the 'Champs Eliza' for the Champs-Élysées and the 'Rue de Ravioli' for the Rue de Rivoli. Other locations and illustrations refer to the expatriate and literary scene in Paris, such as 'The Two Magots' (Les Deux Magots) café in the foreground and the Café de la Paix near the center, longtime meeting places of literary and artistic types of many nations. The Louvre ('The Louvy') is described as 'the biggest department store I ever seen!' The map's title, the magazine's name, the Folies Bergère (at right), and an illustration of an automobile at the end of the Champs-Élysées are ghosted in. Many of the jokes poke fun at Americans' consumerism, crudeness, and America-centrism, as with the replacement of Napoleon's statue on the Colonne Vendôme with George Washington and the stream of people leaving the American Express location towards the Café de la Paix. Americans in Paris Largely as a result of World War I (1914 - 1918), when many thousands of American doughboys passed through, Paris took on a revered and almost mythical status in the American imagination in the Interwar Period, especially among writers, artists, musicians, and fashion designers. An Anglo-American group of writers and artists, including Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and James Joyce, all resided, worked (sometimes), and partied (often) throughout the 'années folles' of 1920s Paris, memorialized in Hemingway's first novel, the roman à clef The Sun Also Rises (1926). Others, most famously Josephine Baker, found Paris far more accepting of Black people than the United States and decided to stay there. Composer George Gershwin only lived in Paris for a short time, but in 1928 composed one of the defining works of this milieu, the tone poem An American in Paris . Although cultural and linguistic barriers persisted, the era between roughly 1921 and the onset of the Great Depression witnessed considerable cross-cultural interaction and influence. The result was the distinctive, defining Art Deco aesthetic of the Jazz Age. Fairchild's International Magazine Fairchild's International Magazine was a richly-illustrated but relatively short-lived (Aug. 1926 - Feb. 1932) venture of the Interwar Period by the fashion-themed American company Fairchild Publications. Founded in 1892 by Edmund Fairchild, the company initially focused on men's fashion but found greater success in discussing and advertising women's fashion. Capitalizing on the increasing Transatlantic connections in the fashion world, Fairchild established offices in London, Paris, Berlin, and Vienna, and published Fairchild's International Magazine from both London and Paris. Likewise, the publication included advertisements in both French and English, although the articles were generally written in English. In effect, the magazine existed to disseminate the newest fashion trends from Paris each season to readers in London, New York, and beyond, including professionals in the clothing trade. However, some articles dealt with other trends in women's clothing; for example, the issue in which the present map appeared on the cover included an article on English clothiers designing practical outfits for female aviators. While perhaps.

In den WarenkorbSoft cover. Good. Manuscript and wash. Laid down on archival paper. Some wear on old fold lines. Soiling. Size 26.5 x 30.75 Inches. This is Lucien Florent Paul Coffyn's 1862 manuscript masterplan of Saigon - the first and most significant map of Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). Coffyn was the French military engineer tasked with trans…forming a war-torn fort into a model colonial capital. Following the 1861 French occupation of Saigon, authorities resolved to build a new city on the wartorn site at a monumental scale, reflecting boundless imperial ambition. Coffyn, driven by an unwavering belief in the colony's promise, envisioned a grand, European-style metropolis designed to accommodate half a million residents across 25 square kilometers. The present map - exquisitely drafted and signed by both Coffyn and Vice Admiral Louis Bonard, Governor of Cochinchina - is the likely original manuscript submitted for formal approval. Over the subseqeunt decades, Coffyn's street layout and placement of major sites were implemented with fidelity, though not comprehensively, marking this as the foundational document of colonial Saigon. It stands as a unique testament to French imperial planning and an unparalleled artifact of Asian colonial urbanism. A Closer Look The map is meticulously executed in grisaille pen and wash. It presents an ambitious polygonal city extending west from the Saigon River (Sông Sài Gòn) and exhibiting symmetry and perfection seemingly at odds with the swampy malarial terrain of the Mekong Delta. Coverage extends south to the Arroyo Chinois (Tàu H?) and north to the Arroyo de l'Avalanche (Th? Nghè), bother pre-existing rivers. The terrain was to be drained by a series of canals, including a belt canal ( canal de ceinture ), which would also serve a defensive function, and an expansive network of internal canals. The streets are laid out on a grid of 45° orthogonals radiating from a semicircular plaza on the waterfront. Streets throughout are numbered, with the sole exception being the proposed main street, Rue Impériale (now Hai Bà Tr?ng Street), which runs northeast from the rondpointe . To the north of Rue Impériale is the Gouvernement et Administration Supérieure in the form of a large fort - the site of Saigon's existing La Citadelle du Phe?nix. To the Rue Impérial, he planned the city's commercial and industrial district, comprising some 2,300 hectares. The remainder was intended for residential development, including a large public park and water basin. Across the river to the east and south are proposed residential suburbs. The legend at lower right identifies 30 key locations: Gouvernement et Administration Sup.re - Supreme Government and Administration Office, located within La citadelle du Phénix.

In den WarenkorbSoft cover. Excellent. Manuscript map on thick stock. Size 5.5 x 6.25 Inches. This is an exceptional original c. 1880 manuscript draft map of New Orleans in 1728 drafted by eccentric German-American civil engineer Baron Ludwig von Reizenstein for later publication in George E. Waring Jr.'s influential 1881 History and Present Co…ndition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas . A Closer Look Waring's History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas included an extensive history of the city of New Orleans from its founding until 1880. This historical section included 10 maps of New Orleans, both Reizenstein originals and versions of historical maps. The present map is Reizenstein's recreation of the map of Ignace-François Broutin (1690 - 1751), an important surveyor and engineer in early French Louisiana, who produced maps of the city in 1728 and 1732, which themselves were based on an unsigned manuscript map (now held by the Bibliothèque nationale de France) titled 'Plan de la ville de la Nouvelle Orléans en l'état quelle étoit le 30 may 1725,' among the earliest maps of the city, believed to have been prepared by Adrien de Pauger (c. 1685 - 1726) and/or Valentin Devin (fl. c. 1719 - 1725). The map presents the burgeoning city, with the street grid (now the 'French Quarter') laid out by de Pauger easily recognizable. Several sites within the city and along its periphery, including residential quarters, the prison, mills, a brickyard, a riverside levee, magazine (poudrière, likely the origin of the name Magazine St.), and the seat of government, are labelled or numbered, corresponding to an index at left. The 'Fleuve Saint Louis' (Mississippi River) flows before the city. Bayous, including the still-so-named Bayou St. John, and a drainage ditch (fossé d'écoulement) lay to the north of the city, towards Lake Pontchartrain. The Waring Report George E. Waring, Jr.'s History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas was published in 1881 as part of a study commissioned in 1880 by the U.S. Census Bureau. In 1886, Waring's full report, the Report on the Social Statistics of Cities , was published to document and analyze the social, economic, and environmental conditions of urban centers in the United States. The Report sought to provide a detailed statistical overview of urban life, examining topics such as public health, infrastructure, housing, sanitation, and demographics. Its publication reflected the growing concerns of the time regarding urbanization, industrialization, and their impact on public well-being. The Report had a lasting influence on urban reform and public policy, leading to the implementation of large-scale public works projects, including sewer systems and public housing initiatives. His focus on sanitation and public health provided the foundation for modern urban hygiene practices, and his data-driven approach to social analysis became a model for subsequent studies on urban life. Publication History and Census As L. Reizenstein's original manuscript map, this is unique. A lithograph version of the map was published in George E. Waring Jr.'s History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas . The History contained this and several other maps by Reizenstein, the original drafts for which Geographicus also holds. Even printed examples of this map from the History are very rare. These original drafts are both larger and more beautiful, in addition to being one of a kind. We do not know precisely when Waring commissioned Reizenstein to make the maps, but it must have occurred around 1880 when the Waring report was ordered as part of that year's census. As Waring notes in the report, the New Orleans section is the largest in the book, having been mostly completed before the report was ordered. A one-of-a-kind record of New Orleans history.

In den WarenkorbSoft cover. Average. Manuscript. Overall toning. Color loss and surface scuffing. A few small holes. Laid down on old linen. Size 43 x 31.5 Inches. This is a large-format Thai-language c. 1957 manuscript historical wall map of Southeast Asia. It depicts the historical Kingdom of Ayutthaya, forerunner to modern Thailand, with a v…ery generous border, a reflection of the ideological values of Pan-Thaiism. A Closer Look The map presents an aggrandized view of the territory of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya (1351 - 1767), stretching from what is today southern China to the Malay Peninsula and incorporating all of today's Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia, along with portions of China, Myanmar (Burma), and Vietnam. It is likely meant to resemble the putative territory of the kingdom during the reign of King Naresuan, also known as Naresuan the Great (r. 1590 - 1605). Coverage includes from Chittagong (????????) in today's Bangladesh at top-left to southern China (the Leizhou Peninsula and Hainan Island) at top-right, to Malacca (??????), the Malacca Straits, and Sumatra at bottom. Color-shading indicates the borders of kingdoms and territories, which are labelled in larger text (China ???, Malay ?????, and India ???????, among others, in addition to Ayutthaya), while many cities are noted throughout with red circles. Among Thai cities are those that are now large and well-known internationally like Chiang Mai (?????????), as well as smaller cities that were among the largest in the era of Ayutthaya Kingdom, such as it capital, Ayutthaya (??????, on the Chao Praya River not far from where Bangkok would later develop), Phitsanulok (????????), and Lopburi (??????), and Nan (????). Several cities are depicted as part of Ayutthaya but are not now part of neighboring countries, such as Vientiane (Lan Xang, ????????), Luang Prabang (??????????), and Battambang (????????), while several cities beyond the rule of Ayutthaya are easily recognizable by names they retained into the modern era, such as Hu? (???), Saigon (??????), and Taungoo (?????). Thai Irridentism and Historical Cartography The map reflects a strain of Thai irridentism and nationalism, known as Pan-Thaiism, that became pronounced in the 20th century, namely after the 1932 revolution, which transitioned the country from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy under a civilian-military regime. This ideology gained prominence particularly during the 1930s and early 1940s under the leadership of Field Marshal Plaek Phibunsongkhram (Phibun, 1897 - 1964), when the intellectual and statesman Luang Wichitwathakan (????????????????, 1898 - 1962) largely formulated it. This ideology was driven by two motives: the first being a claim that all Thai peoples in Southeast Asia were part of a single 'Thai Race,' and the second that Thailand (renamed from Siam in 1939 to emphasize Thai identity) needed to 'reunify' these peoples in a single political entity and reclaim lands that had historically been 'stolen' by malign foreign powers, both near (Burma) and far (France, Britain). These beliefs led Phibun to align with Japan after the Fall of France in 1940, which presented an opportunity to reclaim land in French Indochina. In exchange for facilitating Thai irredentism, Japanese forces were allowed to use Thailand as a staging ground for their invasions of British Malaya and Burma in December 1941. This alliance proved to be a major liability and caused Phibun to be removed from office in 1944 (he returned to power in the postwar period), though the United States took a more forgiving approach towards Thailand than the British and French, laying the foundations for a close relationship, including a military alliance, during the Cold War. From the 1930s, several cartographic projects aimed to establish historical legitimacy for Pan-Thaiism. At that time, maps began to be produced that claimed implausibly large borders for the greater Thai nation or race, often referring to the Ayutthaya Kingdom and especial.

A Closer Look Waring's History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas included an extensive history of the city of New Orleans from its founding until 1880. This historical section included 10 maps of New Orleans, both Reizenstein originals and versions of historical maps of the city. The present map is Reizenstein's recreation of Philip Pittman's map Plan of New Orleans published in his book The Present State of the European Settlements of the Missisippi in London in 1770. The 12 locations numerically identified here are identical to those on Pittman's map, including the church, the powder magazine, and the general hospital. However, Reizenstein moves Pittman's note, 'the dotted squares are lots not yet granted' from the bottom of the index to above the map. Reizenstein also adds the note above New Orleans and the note in the bottom-left corner, which states that 'the streets now called Rampart, Customhouse, and Barracks were then laid out as marked on this plan but no names at the time.' This map was commissioned around 1880 for George E. Waring Jr.'s History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas , which contains a much-reduced version in lithograph. The Waring Report George E. Waring, Jr.'s History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas was published in 1881 as part of a study commissioned in 1880 by the U.S. Census Bureau. In 1886, Waring's full report, the Report on the Social Statistics of Cities , was published to document and analyze the social, economic, and environmental conditions of urban centers in the United States. The Report sought to provide a detailed statistical overview of urban life, examining topics such as public health, infrastructure, housing, sanitation, and demographics. Its publication reflected the growing concerns of the time regarding urbanization, industrialization, and their impact on public well-being. The Report had a lasting influence on urban reform and public policy, leading to the implementation of large-scale public works projects, including sewer systems and public housing initiatives. His focus on sanitation and public health provided the foundation for modern urban hygiene practices, and his data-driven approach to social analysis became a model for subsequent studies on urban life. Publication History and Census As L. Reizenstein's original manuscript map, this is unique. A reduced lithograph version of the map was published in George E. Waring Jr.'s History and Present Condition of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Report on the City of Austin, Texas . The History contained this and several other maps by Reizenstein, the original drafts for which Geographicus also holds. Even printed examples of this map from the Report are very rare - just one example of the printed edition has appeared at auction, fetching 1000 USD, plus premium. These original drafts are both larger and more beautiful, in addition to being one of a kind. We do not know precisely when Waring commissioned Reizenstein to make the maps, but it must have occurred around 1880 when the Waring report was ordered as part of that year's census. As Waring notes in the report, the New Orleans section is the largest in the book, having been largely completed before the report was ordered. A one-of-a-kind record of New Orleans history.

In den WarenkorbVery attractive folding colour manuscript map of Ezo/Hokkaido, 82.3 x 165cm, folds into card covers with a title label on upper cover. Map a little time toned, card covers trifle insect damaged and marked. A very good copy of interesting and attractive map. This large sized hand drawn map of Ezo [Hokkaido] and surrounding region…s covers the area from the northern end of Honshu to Karafuto [Sakhalin], and the far northeastern Asian mainland. Beyond the Japanese territory, the map shows Russia (including Kamchatka), China and Korea, and the mouth of the Amur River. The map also covers the southern Kuril Islands of Etorofu [Iturup] and Kunashiri [Kunashir], as well as other islands around Hokkaido. Several pieces of internal evidence suggest that this map may relate to the late 18th century growth of Japanese coastal trade around Ezo and as far as the southernmost ports of Karafuto. The distances of various sea routes from the ports of northern Honshu to landing points around the coast of Ezo and as far as southern Karafuto are marked in red, but it is significant that the person who produced the map was quite unfamiliar with the areas of Ezo north of the Oshima Peninsula in the far south of the island, and with all of Karafuto other than the villages on the southernmost coast. The shape of Ezo as drawn on the map is extremely forshortened, and the only part of Karafuto shown with even approximate acuracy is the shoreline of Aniwa Bay in the far south. Interestingly, the map's author has heard the names of some more northerly villages in Karafuto, such as Taraika, which he has added to the map, but he has guessed the shape of the island north of Aniwa Bay, making it much shorter and smaller than it is in reality. There are indications that the map was drawn (or is a copy of a work drawn) before the end of the 18th century. For example, it does not include the name of the port of Hakodate in southern Ezo, which had become a significant trading and administrative post by the first decade of the 19th century, nor does it include Shiranushi, the prinicipal Japanese trading post in southern Karafuto, established by Matsumae Domain in 1790. It does, however, include a fairly detailed outline of the Kuril Island of Iturup (Etorofu), with a note that 'in recent years Ezo [Ainu] and Russians have been trading here'. Russians are known to have visited Iturup to trade and exact 'tribute' [yasak] from the local Ainu population from about the 1760s-1770s onward. The map provides a fascinating illustration of gradually increasing knowledge of the northern regions and northeastern Asian mainland in Edo Period Japan.

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Very good. Manuscript and pastedown on art-board. Size 12 x 9 Inches. An original manuscript storyboard political cartoon by Jack Howells 'Herc' Ficklen satirizing national interest in the 1972 Democratic National Convention, held in Miami, Florida. The cartoon depicts Uncle Sam, representing the United States, lookin…g downward at his beard - Florida. The cartoon features 'Little Longhorn', Ficklen's signature 'dingbat' introduced in 1971. The cartoon, entitled 'All Eyes' ran in the Dallas News in July of 1972. The carton bears a dedicated to Lee D. Saegesser. The famous NASA archivist and historian, suggesting it was presented to him as a gift from Ficklen, possibly due to its Florida focus. The 1972 Democratic Convention The 1972 Democratic Convention, held in Miami Florida, was one of the most significant in the history of American electioneering - when this cartoon was issued the eyes of the country were indeed on Florida. It was the first democratic convention to introduce new rules on delegate selection. These included quorum requirements for meetings, and quotas for women and minority groups. The convention also established much of the Democratic agenda that remains with us today, including equal rights, universal guaranteed income, anti-war policies, and more. In addition, it was the first campaign where an African American Woman, Shirley Chisholm (1924 - 2005) ran for president. While George McGovern ultimately received the nomination, Chisholm came in a strong 4th, strongly ahead of political mainstays like Ted Kennedy and Walter Mondale. McGovern lost the national election to Richard Nixon by largest landslide in any US Presidential election. Publication History and Census This is the original artwork for a political cartoon that ran in the Dallas News in 1972, during the Miami, Florida, democratic National Convention. As original artwork, it is the only known example.

In den WarenkorbHand-drawn and hand-coloured Ottoman Turkish map, 536 x 778 mm. Scale 1:1,000.000. Unique hand-drawn map of western Yemen, southern Arabia and the southern Red Sea, reaching from Aden, Djibouti's Gulf of Tadjoura, and the Bab-el-Mandeb in the south and as far north as Mecca, Jeddah, and Rabigh. The legend identifies the various…symbols used in the map to show features of the land: fortresses, railroads ("simendüfer", chemin-de-fer), international and Sanjak borders, simple roads, and causeways ("sose", chaussée). Apart from a few miles of rails inland from Hodeidah, no railways are shown in Arabia (the Hejaz railway had reached Medina in 1908 and not proceeded further), but several tracks are illustrated on the African side, some dubious. Dated 20 March 1327 (2 April 1911 CE), the map is signed with an unidentified monogram and inscribed as a gift to "Tevfik Bey Efendi, my comrade in misfortune" ("Refik-i felaketim Tevfik Beyefendi'ye yadigarimdir"). In the right margin, a series of pencil notes enumerate the various konaks (one-day travel stage posts) of the laborious land journey from Hodeidah to Sana'a. - The Sublime Porte had long sought to assert its authority in Yemen, and in 1872 had succeeded in establishing the Yemen Vilayet as an administrative division of the Ottoman Empire, though the vast area proved almost impossible to rule and continued to be plagued by insurrections. In early 1911 the Imam of Yemen, frustrated by the lack of progress in negotiations that had lasted for fully five years, began another revolt against the Ottomans: armed rebel bands arrived in Sana'a on 12 January 1911 and took over the city. The rebellion collapsed near the end of April, followed in October with the signing of the Treaty of Daan, which made Yemen a vassal state of the Ottoman Empire. It is very likely that the draughting of the present map was occasioned by the various Ottoman administrative and military operations taking place in Yemen during early April 1911. - Traces of folds which show a few insignificant paper and edge flaws. Drawn on high-quality Austrian "carta di disegno" paper with drystamp in one corner.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. (JAPAN - Kagoshima peninsula). Oh-Sumi-Satsuma-Ryougoku-no Zu . [Kagoshima ? c1690] Coloured manuscript navigational map painted on paper (99.3 x 109cm ) with landscape and coastlines in coloured pictorial relief of blue, green and grey; charting distances between fortified town…s, and nautical miles from ports to neighbouring islands in red; original calligraphic title and seal still visible in top left margin; lower left margin with calligraphic ownership signature for the daimyo Matsudaira Ohsumi-no-kami of the Shimazu clan, chief of the Osumi domain; mounted on paper; artist unknown. Folded in modern blue paper cover on soft cardboard with title inscription repeated. A fine manuscript map of the provinces of Satsuma and Osumi drawn up for its feudal lord, the daimyo Matsudaira Ohsumi-no-kami of the Shimazu clan, probably in order to provide geographical information of his large and politically important domain to the Shogunate which ordered each feudal lord to furnish a map of his fief, as a form of indirect control. The present map may be a copy of the original sent to the shogun. Japan had about 300 daimyo during this period with greatly varying sizes of territory, so that the map of the rich trading southwestern peninsula would have been of special interest to the government. The port city of Kagoshima became the capital of Satsuma province, the feudal territory of the powerful Shimazu clan which also controlled the Osumi domain. Such manuscript maps later provided the basis for a new map of Japan, known as the 'Genruko Map', completed in 1702. Charted are land and sea routes between the main castle towns and ports of the peninsula, the distances between them and the neighbouring islands. Reference is made to : Yakushima in the south, one of the Osumi islands (famous for its cedarwood - 135 km from Kagoshima), in the west, to the [Koshikijima] islands (not named - 40km from Kagoshima), to the north to : Tanegashima, another Osumi island (known as a historic landing point for the introduction of European firearms to Japan - 115km from Kagoshima), and to the Amakusa islands off the west coast of Kyushu, also ruled by the Shimazu clan during the Edo period (135 km from Kagoshima). An interesting provenance; the powerful daimyo Matsudaira-Ohsumi-no-Kami, chief of Osumi domain, had an annual rice yield of 600,000 koku (- see Kyoto University Economic Review, volume II, 1927, page 45). Repairs to sectional folds, corners & edges; mounted on paper. Generally well preserved.

The Congress of Vienna in 1815 created The German Confederation to coordinate the economies of the separate but culturally related German-speaking countries. It briefly dissolved during the Revolution of 1948, but was re-established in 1850. Nonetheless the rivalry between the two powerful states increased until it finally broke out into the Austro-Prussian War. Prussia won the Austro-Prussian War in 1866 which ultimately led to the collapse of the German Confederation. A few years later, in 1871, most of the former Confederation states were folded into the newly proclaimed German Empire. Features wonderful and whimsical overall presentation.
