Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Very good. Light wear along original fold lines. Verso repairs to fold separations at 2 fold intersections. Slight loss at 2 fold intersections. The Victory War Map on verso. Size 15 x 35.5 Inches. This is a 1943 Ernest Dudley Chase pictorial map of the world during World War II (1939 - 1945). It is one of a series of maps Chase produced to illustrate the war as it developed. A Closer Look The map depicts the world with political boundaries predating the war. Approximate distances between New York and points worldwide, such as Sydney, Melbourne, Manila, and Bombay, are provided. Symbols mark global naval bases and possessions of the British, Americans, Japanese, French, and Dutch. Illustrations of submarines, battleships, and even an ocean liner fill the seas while American fighter and bomber aircraft patrol the skies. Vignettes appear along the top and bottom borders and illustrate a tank, artillery pieces, a B-17 Flying Fortress, and anti-aircraft gun mounts aboard a Navy ship. Morse Code for the letter 'V' (for 'Victory') of three dots and a dash create the border. The Verso: The Victory War Map The Victory War Map occupies over half of the verso and depicts from southern Scandinavia to central Africa and from the Atlantic Ocean to India. Anchors mark naval bases. Cities are labeled throughout, with small crosses marking capitals. Railroads wind across Europe and Asia into the Indian Subcontinent. Very few railroads are illustrated in Africa. Insignia of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps appear on the border. Two smaller maps appear to the right. One illustrates the northern coast of continental Europe from Brittany to the Jutland Peninsula. This vast region was presumed to be the theater of the expected Allied invasion of continental Europe, but no one knew exactly where or when that would occur. The other smaller map focuses on Italy, Sicily, the Adriatic Sea, and the Balkans. The Allies invaded Italy in the fall of 1943, which made this region's geography of even greater interest to Chase's audience. Publication History and Census This map was created and published by Ernest Dudley Chase in 1943 with the 1942 'Total War Battle Map' on the recto. We note an example of the present map in the David Rumsey Map Collection. One example is cataloged in OCLC, which is part of the collection at the National Library of Australia. References: Rumsey 8702.002 and 8702.003. OCLC 421766867.…
