No Binding. Condizione: Good. Colour map 88x59cm. Good or better, neatly folded, lightly tanned, foxed in places with pinholes to the corners, light creasing, and archival tape repairs applied along folds to the blank verso. Scale 1/2M or 1.014 inches to 32 miles. Sheet limits: Lat 24-32 North / Long 44-60 East. Issued not long after Fraser Hunter's "Map of Arabia and the Persian Gulf" for the Survey of India, this reflects British India's growing strategic and economic concerns across the region. The Hejaz and Berlin to Baghdad Railways were threatening to open it up to other powers. There was growing realisation of oil potential via the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (1909) and Turkish (later Iraq) Petroleum Company (1912). Persia had a new Majlis following the Persian Constitutional Revolution 1905-11. And Ibn Saud, his position consolidated in Najd, was preparing to take Al Hasa on the Gulf coast. With Baghdad to the NW, this centres on the Persian Gulf, from its head to Khaburah on the Arabian side, and Tank on the Persian side. The former takes in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Al Hasa and the Trucial Sheikhdoms naming all except for Ajman which has labels for Hairah (Al-Hirah) and Hamriyah instead. It covers the interior into Najd as far as Riyadh and the road towards Mecca (SW), and Buraimi Oasis (SE). On the Persian side it covers inland to Kuh-i-Shah (NE). Several areas to the north especially are marked as "unsurveyed" or "unexplored", with "existence doubtful" at Shurgaz Hamun. Features include road and rail of various qualities, telegraph lines, and names for provinces, districts, tribes, and places of archaeological interest. Geographical features distinguish Arabic and Persian terms, labelling hills, ranges, mounds, passes, open plains, bridges, canals, rivers, depressions, salt marshes, inlets, bays, islands, capes, and forts. Relief is shown through contours, hachures and heights. (Ref: Foliard, Dislocating the Orient, University of Chicago, 2017: 180ff). …
