This was the age when the Dutch Republic was a major European trading power and dominated the oceans through the VOC (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) and the WIC (West-Indische Compagnie). Not only trade flourished, but also art, science and a combination of the two, cartography. Of the cartographers and sea atlas publishers working in Amsterdam in the second half of the seventeenth century, Hendrik Doncker’s atlases were regarded as of particularly high quality. He was known to carefully and constantly revise his work and did not rely on previously published maps.The first Doncker chart shows the West Coast of Africa, from the Equator to the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Agulhas. It also includes an inset of the coast from St. Martin’s Bay (Velddrif/ Paternoster area) to the Cape of Good Hope. The map of the East Coast of Africa, in smaller scale, overlaps the other and the coastline starts at Monte dos Bramides, rounds southern Africa and continues up the coast to the Horn of Africa. It also includes Arabia, the Malabar Coast of India and Madagascar.Both maps use the Mercator projection with vertical meridians. The bar scales include Dutch, Spanish and French and English miles. The charts are crisscrossed with rhumb lines meeting at central points, with some adorned with compass roses. On the compass roses a fleur-de-lis points North and there is a Christian cross pointing East, denoting the position of Jerusalem in relation to Europe.The title of cartouche on the western chart is surrounded by depictions of the inhabitants of the area holding a sounding lead, a cross staff and a chart, all navigation tools of the period. Another decorative element on this chart is the depiction of Dutch East Indiamen sailing in the Atlantic. The eastern chart’s cartouche is decorated with a tortoise, lizards, snakes, and surmounted by an open winged bat. - L.R.Howse, Derek, The Sea Chart: An Historical Survey Based on the Collections in the National Maritime Museum, New York: McGraw-Hill, 1973

A rare and unique piece of military history - a DDMS 30 Corps (XXX Corps) staff car pendent flag, possibly that of General Field Marshall Montgomery, which was destroyed by Dive Bomber during the North Africa campaign in 1942. The flag, being a red cross on white ground, features handwritten notation to three corners ' Battle For Tobruck (sic) 18/11/41-5/12/41', ' DDMS30 Corps ' and ' 75A CCS - Dive Bombed 6/12/42'. Flag shows signs of wind and age damage. An interesting piece of WWII history. XXX Corps (30 Corps) was a corps of the British Army during the Second World War. The Corps provided extensive service in the North African Campaign at the Second Battle of El Alamein in late 1942, and in the Tunisia Campaign and the Allied invasion of Sicily in 1943, after which it returned briefly to the United Kingdom; the Corps served in the reclamation of France from June 1944 in the Allied Invasion of Normandy, and then served in Operation Market Garden, in the Netherlands, and finally in Operation Veritable in Germany until May 1945. The Siege of Tobruk lasted for 241 days in 1941, after Axis forces advanced through Cyrenaica from El Agheila in Operation Sonnenblume against Allied forces in Libya, during the Western Desert Campaign (1940–1943) of the Second World War. In late 1940, the Allies had defeated the Italian 10th Army during Operation Compass (9 December 1940 – 9 February 1941) and trapped the remnants at Beda Fomm. During early 1941, much of the Western Desert Force (WDF) was sent to the Greek and Syrian campaigns. As German troops and Italian reinforcements reached Libya, only a skeleton Allied force remained, short of equipment and supplies.
