Condición: Fair. Original British First World War military trench map titled 'Durgutli - Visoka Cuka', produced during the Salonika Campaign on the Macedonian Front. Scale 1:10,000. Marked 'CONFIDENTIAL' in red. The map is dated 6 September 1918 and was produced by the 8th Field Survey Company, Royal Engineers, No. 501. The trenches are stated to have been corrected to 10 August 1918. The printed note states that the map was compiled from a 1:20,000 survey with additional detail obtained from aeroplane photographs, and that trenches are shown as they appeared on aerial photographs. Suspected machine-gun and trench-mortar emplacements are also indicated. The map shows military positions, trenches, defensive works, roads, tracks, contours and numerous tactical details, including positions identified as No. 9 Post, No. 10 Post, Gulemenli Picket, Big Stone and White House.

Please examine all photographs carefully. …

No Binding. Condición: Good. A unique composite colour printed, partially linen-backed paper pilot's map approx 145x26cm. Good, neatly folded with a couple of fold tears and minor loss, clearly used with flight lines neatly drawn on and ms annotations. An improvisation like this was a practical way around carrying several standard format charts that could not conveniently show the long linear routes flown. This one is made up of 3 adjacent 1/1M sheets, each neatly cropped into small sections and stuck together to form a continuous slightly bow-shaped image without borders. In sequence from NW to SE, the first sheet, retaining its title "Marseille - Nice" revised and zincographed by OS 1944 has been identified as "K.31 & PT.32, 2758, no. 2758" by Forward Survey Company 512, Royal Engineers, 1944 (OCLC 949815322). From this, the adjoining sheets lacking titles have been identified as "J.31 & PT.32 Alger - Bizerte", and "J.33 and PTS. 32, 34 Tunis - Palermo". Between them they cover the area from Malta to the Alpes de Provence, with a flight route drawn from an unlabelled location marked with a cross to the south of Valletta (this would be RAF Luqa), to a location marked north of Cagliari (probably Decimomannu Air Base), then on to Marseilles. During WW2, RAF Luqa was home to Air HQ Malta, a major base for British Commonwealth forces seeking naval control in the Mediterranean and ground control in North Africa, with air combat over and near Malta among the fiercest. After taking Sardinia in 1943, the USAAF used Decimomannu Air Base for its B26 Marauder medium bombers during Nov 1943 to Oct 1944. This map may therefore have been used in the Anglo-US bombing of Marseilles in May 1944, and the subsequent Allied invasion of Provence (Operation Dragoon) on 15 August, using both bases to disrupt Axis supply lines and support the advance. This led to the Free French liberation of Marseilles a few days later.…

No Binding. Condición: Very Good. An exceptionally interesting original Second World War military map measuring 55.7 × 73.6 cm, printed in Egypt by 512 Army Field Survey Company, Royal Engineers, from Survey of Egypt plates in July 1942 and reprinted by the same unit in September 1942. The sheet is prominently marked "NOT TO BE PUBLISHED" and carries an extensive red military grid based on longitude 31° E. It covers Wadi el Natrun and the desert approaches to the western Nile Delta, showing the chain of lakes, Bir Hooker, wells, tracks, roads, railways, canals, cultivated areas and settlements with a detailed bilingual English and Arabic reference key. An adjoining Wadi el Natrun sheet reproduced by 512 Field Survey Company in June 1942 is institutionally recorded at the Australian War Memorial, while the University of Texas preserves the same 84/54 geographical sheet in later Allied military mapping. The September 1942 production date places this map immediately before the Second Battle of El Alamein, when the defence of Egypt and the approaches to Cairo and the Nile Delta were of major Allied strategic importance. Most unusually, the verso consists of a German 1:100,000 military map of Sidi Barrani, marked Nur für den Dienstgebrauch! and repeatedly overprinted CANCELLED, with detailed well and cistern information. Sidi Barrani had been occupied by the Italian Tenth Army before its recapture by British and Commonwealth forces during Operation Compass in December 1940. The reuse of superseded mapping as printing stock is consistent with documented wartime practice during periods of paper scarcity, although the present sheet does not itself establish how the German map entered British possession. A remarkable double-sided survival linking two distinct phases of the North African Campaign. Good to very good condition, with original folds, handling and creasing, marginal wear, several small holes or tears towards the left edge, local fold wear and minor age-toning; both maps remain substantially complete and strongly legible.…

No Binding. Condición: Good. Colour printed paper map 57x80cm. Good, neatly folded, with closed circular tear to the image, spotted, and lightly creased, rubbed along the outer fold. This edition of 8 June 1941 was drawn and reproduced by 512 Advanced Field Survey Company from a French Map dated 1938, updated from the 1 January 1941 edition with roads revised June 1941 from intelligence reports, corrected marginal notes, and tables reconciling French and Palestine Grids. This dates to the first day of the Syrian-Lebanon Campaign led by British, Commonwealth and Free French forces against the Vichy French (Operation Exporter). On 8 June, Australian forces crossed from northern Palestine into Lebanon and began their advance on Beirut. Initially they made good progress until temporarily held up in fierce fighting at the Litani River (9 June). There followed a series of battles during advances along the coast and inland via Merdjayoun. These culminated in the Battle of Beirut (12 July), which established the Allied occupation of Lebanon, and Beirut as an important Allied naval base. Bounded by the Mediterranean from Nahariya in northern Palestine (SW) to Beirut and Djounieh (N), and inland to Rayak (NE), this covers the above theatre of operations including locations along the coastal and inland advances. Details include roads (2 classes), tracks (4 classes from passable all seasons to fit for cart traffic only), rail (2 gauges), remains of Roman roads, mosques, tombs, towers, forts, telegraph, pipelines, wells, camps, gardens, airstrips etc, with contour lines and spot heights. Rare.…

No Binding. Condición: Good. Colour printed paper map 62x86cm. Good only, quite neatly folded, worn at the edges with short closed tears, creasing and marks. Compiled, drawn and reproduced by 512 Forward Survey Company, Royal Engineers, July 1942 from 1:100,000 Egypt, gridded with "Red" Grid and Palestine Grid. This shows northern Sinai including its capital El Arish, bounded by the Mediterranean coast from Sabkhet (Lake) El-Bardawil (NW) to Rafah on the Mandatory Palestine border (NE), inland to Wadi El Saheimi (S). Relief is shown by hachures, contours and spot heights. Details include the Sinai Military Railway with its stations named along the coast, a section of the main Ismailia to Beersheba road, several desert roads with natural foundation and tracks or paths unfit for wheeled traffic, ruins, wadis, palm groves, etc. It was issued during the latterly named "200 Days of Dread" from Spring to November 1942, which began with the Allied retreat towards Tobruk, leading to fears among the Yishuv the Afrika Korps would soon overrun British possessions in the Middle East. During 1941-42 the Haganah devised its "Plan of the North", a last stand should the Afrika Korps force a British retreat into Syria and Iraq. This incorporated British defensive plans under "Palestine Final Fortress" (or "Defence of the Last Position Palestine") which made use of the mountainous topography between Mount Carmel and the Jordan Valley. The Mount Carmel region had been declared a closed military area in early 1942, with massive infrastructural development underway. The 200 Days of Dread and the need to prepare against possible invasion ended with Allied victory in the Second Battle of El Alamein on 11 November.…

No Binding. Condición: Good. JINJA & ENVIRONS. UGANDA. E.A.F. NO. 1681 / C.846. KING'S AFRICAN RIFLES CANTONMENT. Entebbe: Survey, Land and Mines Department, April 1945; reproduced September 1945 by 157 (East Africa & Southern Rhodesia) Base Survey Company, East African Engineers. Large colour military and topographical survey map, scale 1:12,600, approximately 76 × 89.2 cm. A scarce Second World War survey of Jinja and its immediate surroundings at the head of the Victoria Nile on Lake Victoria, showing in considerable detail the street plan, railway, administrative and institutional buildings, land holdings, contours, factory area, golf course and surrounding estates. Of particular military importance is the prominently identified "K.A.R. Cantonment", with Parade Ground and associated buildings, recording Jinja's close connection with the King's African Rifles. Jinja served as an important wartime Infantry Training Centre, and the 4th (Uganda) Battalion King's African Rifles subsequently occupied the Jinja barracks in 1948. The map was compiled during the final months of the Second World War, when Ugandan KAR units were serving overseas, and was reproduced by 157 (East Africa & Southern Rhodesia) Base Survey Company, the British military survey formation responsible for extensive mapping throughout East Africa during the closing years of the conflict. The imprint names Noel Allan Middlemas as Director of Surveys. A faint map of the Kampala Industrial Area is visible on the reverse, an unusual additional feature suggesting the sheet's practical use within the colonial survey establishment. Institutional searches locate later Jinja surveys and extensive holdings of maps produced by 157 Base Survey Company, but no readily accessible record of this precise 1945 E.A.F. No. 1681 / C.846 issue has been identified. Numerous folds and creases, general handling and toning, tears and splits including a more substantial repaired tear towards the lower left, old tape repairs, minor marginal losses and manuscript annotations; nevertheless substantially complete and clearly legible. Good. Location: Tube B: Africa.…

No Binding. Condición: Good. 2nd Edition. Colour printed paper map 115x86cm. Good, quite neatly folded, and apparently displayed with pinholes, some rust residue, paper repair, short closed tears, and loss to corners (not affecting images). An impressive Middle East Forces (MEF) planning chart for Mechanised Transport (M.T.) with 14 local insets, road surface information, mileages, the incidence of malaria, and other practical information about staging posts, cities and towns en route. This was drawn and reproduced by 512 Field Survey Company, Royal Engineers in December 1944, from information supplied by Movements and Transportation, GHQ MEF. The main map covers a significant part of the Middle East Theatre, bounded by Matruh on the Mediterranean (W), Aqaba (SE), and Aleppo (NE), with onward details for Baghdad and elsewhere. It presents a dense colour coded network of routes on a 1/1M scale, supported by a table describing and assessing the quality of road surfaces between several locations, including combinations of metalled, mud, and desert tracks. Other tables give mileages for the region, and more specifically for Alexandria and Baghdad. Details include principal towns, and staging areas with colour coding to show what facilities to expect at each from among water, petrol, D.I.D. (these were Detail Issue Depots responsible for supplying units in forward areas), signal communication, or nothing at all. "Highly Malarious Areas" shaded pink include pretty much all of the Nile Delta, Suez Canal and Jordan Valley, with several long stretches beyond. The inset sketch maps show how to get through Cairo, the Amiriya area, Suez area, Ismailia area, Gaza area, Damascus, Beirut, Jerusalem, the Haifa area, Lydda area, Marjayoun, Tulkarm, Palmyra (including part of the course of the IPC Pipeline), and routes to Baghdad via Abu Kemal. The city plans include locations of practical interest. Beirut for example appears to be very well equipped with sub-area HQ, transit camps (with geographically separate British and Indian Wings), a leave camp, petrol, DID, marshalling yards, railway facilities etc, and a warning that some streets are one-way only. Very rare with 5 copies of this edition located on Worldcat and Library Hub (BL, Oxford, and the National Libraries of Israel, Australia, and New Zealand). They also record the 1st edition (1943) at BL. No other editions are recorded.…
