P. publisher), Calcutta & Howrah Guide Map, published at the Survey of India Offices, Calcutta, 1926, colour folding lithographic map, laid on linen on a scale of 4 inches to the mile, retaining the distance tape indicator, very slight dust soiling and creasing, 1160 x 800 mm, bound in the publisher's blue cloth gilt boards, boards slightly spotted, envelope recess to the verso of the front board containing a 32-page alphabetical list of names, together with Burrard (Colonel Sir S.

Intourist (publishers). Three Soviet pictorial city and regional plans, Moscow a Map by Michael Getmanski, Pictorial Map Panorama of Leningrad [and] Pictorial Map of the Caucasus, published Moscow, 1935 - 38, together, three colour lithographic folding maps with explanatory text in English, the map of Moscow with small areas of repair where old folds cross and backed with archival tissue, the map of the Caucusus with very short splits where old folds cross and retaining the publisher's pictorial boards, the map of Leningrad with short splits where old folds cross and short closed tears along a few old folds, the map retains the rear paper wrapper with a contemporary manuscript ownership signature, the upper wrapper is detached, 580 x 845 mm, 350 x 670 mm and 415 x 590 mm respectivelyQTY: (3)NOTE:Intourist was the official Soviet agency for tourism and was established in 1929. Decorative and aesthetically well-designed maps; they are clearly aimed at English speaking tourists. This is somewhat counter-intuitive as Britain did not establish formal relations with Russia until 1929 and the U.S.A. would not do so until 1933 - 34. This was also the period of Stalin's first five-year plan, the Great Depression was still affecting the world economy and the Soviet Union was a remote and difficult place to reach. It is something of a mystery why these maps were published in English and who the Soviets thought would use them.

Ireland. Mercator (Gerard), Ultoniae Orientalis pars [1595 or later], hand-coloured engraved map, central fold strengthened and repaired on verso, some marginal closed tears, one small stain affecting the printed image, 350 x 380 mm, Latin text on verso, together with Bertius (Petrus).

Carte Particuliere des Pays qui sont Situez entre le Rhein, la Sarre, la Moselle, et la Basse Alsace..., circa 1700, large engraved map with contemporary outline colouring, on six conjoined sheets, laid on later linen, old folds, some marginal fraying, slight dust soiling, 1395 x 1020 mmQTY: (1)NOTE:The old folds on the first described item would indicate that this example is possibly from a later edition of Blaeu's town book, published by R.C. Alberts in 1724.

Japan. Blaeu (Johannes), Japonia Regnum, Amsterdam, circa 1655, engraved map with contemporary outline colouring, some staining, largely confined to the margins, 420 x 565 mm, mounted, framed and glazedQTY: (1)NOTE:This was to remain the standard form of Japan until the eighteenth century and although replaced by the maps of Reland and Kaempfer, it is in its outline, closer to the true shape of Japan than either of these or indeed any printed map before the nineteenth century. It was compiled by Father Martino Martini, an Italian Jesuit, and appears in Blaeu's Atlas Sinensis, the first European atlas of China. It is the first map to correctly show Korea as a peninsula.

Japan. Briet (Philippe), Royaume du Japon designé par le Pere Ph: Briet, de la Compagnie de Jesus. Sur les memoires des Peres de la mesme Compagnie, Paris Pierre Mariette, circa 1660. engraved map with faint contemporary outline colouring, slight staining, 380 x 530 mm, mounted, framed and glazed QTY: (1)NOTE:The engraver, Jan van Somer, worked for Sanson in Paris. Sansom published composite atlases comprised of maps primarily by Mariette and Sanson, and this may be the source for this particular map. This appears to be the second state of the map with the addition of the four cardinal points along the graticule.

Japan. Seutter (George Matthaus), Imperium Japonicum per Sexaginta et Sex Regiones Digestum atque ex Ipsorum Japonensium Mappis Descriptum, Augsburg, circa 1750, engraved map with contemporary outline colouring, inset map of the vicinity of Nagasaki, slight toning, some tape staining to the margins, horizontal margins trimmed, 490 x 580 mm, mounted, framed and glazedQTY: (1)NOTE:Matthaus Seutter's later edition of Adrien Reland's seminal map of Japan. Reland's map was highly unusual in that it used Sino-Japanese characters on a European printed map, sourcing his material from Japanese maps, rather than European examples.

Japan. Tirion (Isaac), Nieuwe Kaart van't Keizerryk Japan..., circa 1760, hand-coloured engraved map, 280 x 320 mm, mounted, framed and glazedQTY: (1)

Japan. Tirion (Isaak), Carta Accurata Dell' Imperio del Giappone..., Venice, circa 1740, hand-coloured engraved map, old folds, 250 x 315 mm, mounted, framed and glazedQTY: (1)

Lenthall (John, publisher). Geographical Cards of England, with part of Scotland and Ireland, and the adjacent parts of France and Flanders, describ’d to tabulate upon the Ace of Harts and the Ace of Diamonds, London: printed for and sold by John Lenthall, [circa 1712-1717], the complete deck of 52 playing cards, the 4 aces with printed description, directions, and list of counties, the remaining cards formed from an engraved map of England and Wales, hand-coloured in outline and dissected into 48 cards, each card with stencilled suit sign in black or red, the 48 map cards with ink manuscript number or Queen / King / Knave, ace of hearts with red ink tax stamp, plain versos, some light spotting, and minor marks, occasional light offsetting, 2 cards with very slight adhesion scarring, each card 95 x 58mm, with contemporary sleeve, formed from (presumably waste) playing cards of plain design, stitched together and covered in marbled paper, rubbed with some minor wearQTY: (1)NOTE:Mann, All Cards on the Table, p.132 (illustration); Mann, Collecting Playing Cards, p.140 (no. XII); Wowk, p.96.Campbell, Tony. “Chronicle for 1991.” Imago Mundi, vol. 44, 1992, p. 140: 'The Geographical cards of England, John Lenthall [c.1718-44], (40 of 52 cards, each composed of a section of the map of England engraved by James Moxon). Sotheby's 14 November 1991 [Lot]...210'.This extremely scarce pack of early geographical playing cards was created from a map of Britain engraved by James Moxon, itself based on an earlier version by Adais. When Moxon died in 1708, John Lenthall obtained many of the plates Moxon had engraved and reissued them. In this case he reprinted Moxon’s map to be cut into a set of playing cards, with suit signs and numbers added by hand. In All Cards on the Table, Sylvia Mann suggests a date of c.1700 for these cards, which could have been true for earlier copies without a tax stamp. However, in his IPCS journal supplement Taxation on Playing-Cards in England... John Berry concludes that the 'crown' tax stamp, when unnumbered (as here), was used for packs made after August 1712 but before January 1718.

London. Gill (MacDonald), The Wonderground Map of London Town, published The Westminster Press, circa 1924, photolithographic colour printed map, sectionalised and laid on linen, slight fraying to margins, a few sheets 'lifting' away from the linen backing, slight creasing, 740 x 930 mm, with part of a larger-scale example on the versoQTY: (1)NOTE:This is an example of the slightly smaller and later edition of Gill's original 1913 map. This is a 1924 edition which is assumed to have been altered to help the promotion of the 1924 British Empire Exhibition that was held at Wembley between April and October of that year. It can be identified by a sign saying:- 'On To Wembley' and an empire lion in the top left-hand corner below the man pushing a bus. The map remains highly stylised and whimsical and was held in great affection by Londoners. It was originally commissioned by The London Underground and was designed to be displayed in tube stations. The intense pictorial content of the map caught the public's imagination and as a result, Gill is often credited with creating a resurgence of the genre of decorative map making. Much work and research has been done by Roderick Barron and Bryars & Bryars on the maps of the Underground and the work of Macdonald Gill and I am also grateful to Claire Dobbins book, London Underground Maps: Art, Design and Cartography.

ADHAIDVIPA PATA DE MADYALOKAGUJARAT, XVIIIE SIÈCLEDistemper on cloth. 119 x 117 cm (46 7/8 x 46 in.), irregular Footnotes:AN ADHAIDVIPA PATA OF MADHYALOKA GUJARAT, 18TH CENTURY古吉拉特邦 十八世紀 耆那教宇宙學中觀世界圖 Published: Jan van Alphen, et al., Steps to Liberation: 2500 Years of Jain Art and Religion, Antwerp, 2000, p. 177, no. 42. Exhibited: Steps to Liberation: 2,500 Years of Jain Art and Religion, Etnografisch Museum Antwerpen, 26 May - 15 October 2000. Provenance: With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1980s Discussing this Jain cosmological map, which Claude de Marteau displayed prominently in his dining room, van Alphen notes, 'This extremely detailed and richly coloured representation of Adhaidvipa - the 'two and a half' continents - is most probably based on an early seventeenth-century model. However, the clothes worn by the various figures, the architectural details of the palaces and also the aquatic figures point to the eighteenth century. The painting shows some unusual features, the extra ring between the central continent, Jambudvipa, and the surrounding salt ocean, Lavanoda, for instance. It is abundantly filled with flowers and trees in a purely decorative style. Great care has been taken in the painting of the figures in the oceans, one of the few areas in which the artist enjoyed a measure of freedom in the otherwise strictly defined representation of the madhyaloka, 'the middle world'. A great many inscriptions are included within the area of the 'two and a half' continents, which are more usually found around its circumference.'For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
