Original Salesman Catalog of Road Maps for the United States and Canada.
San Jose: H.M. Gousha Co. on or before 1956. First edition of this gathering. Folio 13 1/4 x 18 inches. 62 unused road maps in color and with inserts each neatly divided by side tabs. All maps bound on stubs. Original red cloth portfolio with flap and snap fasteners the Shell logo stamped on front cover some soiling or darkening to extremities. The portfolio has some expected wear but the maps are fresh and clean. Shell maps of this era are notable for their high-quality cartography colorful graphics and often included travel tips local advertisements and information about Shell services. None located by OCLC. Harry Mathias Gousha a former Rand McNally went independent in 1926 and relocated to California in 1947. It was a propitious time as the 50s in most respects witnessed the onset of the great American phenomenon of the Road Trip. With the improvement in cars longer and longer trips became feasible. None of the great Interstates as we know them today were in existence at that time so road maps were essential for any successful road trip. The H.M. Gousha Company was one of the "Big Three" major producers of road maps and atlases in the United States during the 25 years following World War II General Drafting and Rand McNally were the other two. Shell maps of this era although free are notable for their high-quality cartography colorful graphics and often included travel tips local advertisements and information about Shell services. The H. M. Gousha Company produced millions of oil company road maps used as marketing tools distributed at no charge at gas stations by customers that included Gulf Oil Conoco Shell Standard Oil and dozens of others. Though most Gousha maps were produced for oil companies many others were issued for customers not related to the petroleum industry including automobile clubs state governments banks and realtors. Ironically the company was purchased by Rand McNally in 1996. H.M. Gousha Co. hardcover

07. [7 Large Folding Maps of the Holocaust in Poland] Pilichowski, Czeslaw, editor; Glo´wna Komisja Badania Zbrodni Hitlerowskic
OBOZY HITLEROWSKIE NA ZIEMIACH POLSKICH 1939 - 1945. INFORMATOR ENCYKLOPEDYCZNY. VOLUME II: MAPY MAP VOLUME STANDS ON ITS OWN 7 LARGE FOLDING MAPS
Warszawa Warsaw: Pan´stw. Wydawn. Naukowe 1979. 1st Edition. Original black printed portfolio 8vo. Portfolio of seven large folding maps on on 4 sheets of heavy paper 3 are double sided 1 is singled sided. Primarily black and white with some color. Text in Polish. <br> Title translates to “Nazi camps in Poland 1939 - 1945. An Encyclopaedic Reference Book: Maps." Collection of 7 maps each 84 cm x 60 cm 33 x 24 inches produced by Jan Laskowski at the Main Commission for the Investigation of Nazi Crimes in Poland. The maps comprise Volume II of the work; Volume I is a heavily illustrated 676-page book of the same title which we offer separately. <br> The Seven maps all present are: <br> - Map 1 Single Sided: Hitlerowskie obozy na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945. “Nazi camps in Poland in the years 1939 - 1945â€. Showing: concentration and extermination camps sub-camps of concentration camps extermination centers POW camps more important sub-camps working divisions commandos and temporary POW camps penal labor camps major labor camps prisons transit camps & ghettos. <br> - Map 2A: Getta na ziemiach polskich w okresie okupacji hitlerowskiej w latach 1939 - 1945 “Ghettos in Poland during the Nazi occupation in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 2B: Hitlerowskie obozy przejsciowe na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi transit camps in Poland in 1939-1945â€. <br> - Map 3A: Hitlerowskie wiezienia i areszty na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi prisons and arrests in Poland in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 3B: Hitlerowskie obozy pracy na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi labor camps in Poland in the years 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 4A: Hitlerowskie obozy jenieckie na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi POW camps in Poland in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 4B: Hitlerowskie obozy koncentracyjne i osrodki zaglady na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi concentration camps and extermination centers in Poland in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> Maps 2A & 2B have been described as a “Terrifying pair of maps showing the locations of German POW and internment camps in Poland during World War II highlighting the widespread locations of these establishments. In some parts of the map the information becomes so dense that three inset maps are shown. This map was designed by Jan Laskowski and printed in 1979 as part of a work on the Nazi extermination machine produced by PWN Warsaw a state-owned research-focused publishing house in Poland.<br> The map on the front is particularly interesting for its depiction of symbols used to classify internees in German camps. The uppermost of these depictions shows the combinations that can be made for different types of prisoners of different levels of importance. The armbands that would have been worn by these prisoners is shown as well as the prison uniforms. Other details are also shown. <br> The map lists hundreds of sites run by Nazi operators throughout the country. These include concentration camps death camps transitional camps and ghettos. The map is divided according to Poland's voivodeships with a key in the lower left. Names of cities too long to spell are also provided in the lower left. <br> This map was produced during a point in Poland's history during which it was actively revisiting the period during the Second World War. Leading social scientists devoted their time to trying to gather all the living as well as the recorded history of the events of the Holocaust and related atrocities before this information vanished. Leading these efforts particularly during the 1960s and 1970s was the Glówna Komisja Scigania Zbrodni przeciwko Narodowi Polskiemu known as the Chief Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes against the Polish Nation. They were active in publishing maps both for domestic educational purposes and for international remembrance and diplomatic efforts regarding the Holocaust. Jan Laskowski was a leading cartographer who produced a number of maps in this field. <br> These maps were produced as part of a series of maps that purported to combine to form an atlas of all of Hitler's crimes in Poland. Many of the large wall maps produced during this period could only show a fraction of the crimes or only the atrocities committed in one region. Thus a series of maps was needed to show all the points necessary which this present work contributes to. <br> Polish Reinterpretations of the Holocaust: Studying the effects of German occupation in Poland is a delicate subject. While it is certain that Poland suffered at least as badly as any other European nation during the Second World War reinterpretations of the Holocaust in the country have also been used to satisfy nationalistic tendencies. It has become evident to Western observers in the last several years that there is a strong nationalist movement in Poland that seeks to place blame for the Holocaust solely on the shoulders of non-Polish actors a movement originally fostered under Soviet rule. This movement has gone so far as to limit freedom of speech criminalizing with a three-year sentence the suggestion that Poland or its citizens in any form participated in the murders committed by Nazis. As such the term ‘Polish concentration camps’ has been deemed unacceptable with the government-approved term being ‘concentration camps on Polish territory.’ <br> All lines of evidence show that this map 2A & 2B was produced using the most accurate and impartial historical sources. The language on the map is simple naming only ‘Hitler's Atrocities’ and there is no evidence of a clear anti-German bias. However it is impossible to separate this map one of the most important productions of the remembrance movement during this period from the social situation in which it was produced. Maps like these can easily be converted into propaganda instruments and today's Polish leaders most of whom grew up during Soviet occupation will have formed their understanding of the Holocaust through maps like these. <br> Soviet Censorship: While the content of the map appears to have been produced free from bias the map still had to go through Soviet censorship. Mentioning prisoner of war camps in which primarily Soviet troops were interned would have been a prerequisite condition upon which the publication of the map rested. Further the lack of mention of any Soviet killings or camps requires no explanation….The map unlike many later maps makes no differentiation between the populations who suffered at the various camps. This represents the Soviet agenda that all nations suffered fought and won equally which sought to limit divisions in this post-identity state†Ruderman 2022. <br> SUBJECTS: World War 1939-1945 -- Prisoners and prisons German. -- Concentration camps -- Poland.
