No Binding. Condizione: 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. Condizione: 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. Condizione: 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. Condizione: 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.

No Binding. Condizione: Good. Two adjoining colour printed paper sheets from the Asia 1/2M (Arabia) series: Sheet S.E. Arabia Layered 80x63cm, and Sheet Gulf of Aden (sitting off-centre below) 80x46cm. Both good, neatly folded with short closed tears, dusting and marks, and flight-related ms annotations. They were reproduced by 512 Forward Survey Company in February and March 1943 respectively, from Survey of India first editions 1934 and 1935. The former is layered with air information for March 1943 from HQ RAF Middle East, the latter with revised communications. Their issue coincides with major reorganisation of Allied air forces in the North African and Mediterranean Theater in February 1943. This made HQ British Forces Aden a sub-command of RAF Middle East Command primarily responsible for anti-submarine operations and escort missions. Centred on the Rub al Khali, the SE Arabia sheet is bounded by the Dahana Sands (NW), Muscat and Ras al Hadd (NE), and the Oman coast as far as Haifif in the Hadhramaut (S). The Gulf of Aden sheet continues along the Aden Protectorate and Yemen coasts to the Red Sea port of Luhaiya (thus including major locations including Masirah Island, Mukalla, Aden, Hodeida, Sana'a etc), with Socotra (SE). Altitudes are shown by colour tints with approximate contours and spot heights. Features include settlements, a web of mainly pack animal tracks, wadis, descriptive notes about terrain in the image, with a large area in the Rub al Khali bounded by Qaamiyat and Awamir labelled "Unexplored desert". Communications include steamer services with destinations and distances and submarine cables especially off the coasts at Aden and Hodeida highlighting the strategic importance of the Bab el Mandeb Strait, and Muscat. RAF data includes airfields, landing grounds, airfields whose local position or existence is not confirmed, landing grounds not regularly visited or unconfirmed, airfields and landing grounds abandoned etc. The annotations include a flight line connecting Aden (RAF Khormaksar) to Masirah Island, which largely follows the coast via Ras Quseir, Mukalla, Quishn, Salalah, Murbat etc with additional points written on. During WW2 RAF Khormaksar played a key role in the East African Campaign, and as a USAAF stopover. The RAF established a permanent detachment on Masirah Island in 1942, building a major base in 1943 to serve as remote refuelling point, staging post on the Aden to India route, and base for anti-submarine patrols. RAF Mirbat and RAF Salalah on the Dhofar coast were early bases established by the RAF to exert control over the Peninsula, the latter providing a staging post during WW2. The annotated route bypasses Khor Gharim, which with Bayt al Falaj and Ras Al-Hadd offered emergency landing grounds. (Reference: RAF Museum website).
