Taken from a bird's eye view of the globe and with relief artistically rendered by artist Kenneth Thompson 1907-1996 and descriptive text by George Fielding Eliot 1894-1971.

Chicago.: Chicago Daily Tribune. 28 January1942. Printed colour map 40.3 x 53.6 cm; 46.5 x 60 cm sheet inset map of the North Pacific back cover from a section of the Chicago Daily Tribune newspaper pages 21-34 January 28 1942; central fold edgewear and browning with a few minor tears not affecting the map in very good condition. Based on a Rand McNally map and issued less than two months after the bombing of Pearl Harbour by the Japanese. The Tribune briskly got to work issuing maps for readers showing the beginnings of the war with Japan. Later maps were also published for sale separately but remarkably few have survived. The map shows "the nearness of our Aleutian Island chain west of Alaska to the islands of Japan. At Dutch Harbor and other points in the Aleutians are actual and potential sea and air bases lying on the shortest route from northwestern United States to Japan." The inset map at lower right situates the areas in the larger map in respect to the countries bordering the North Pacific Ocean. <br> <br>Included with the map is the complete newspaper section from which it is the final full page. Covering sport and the market with half a dozen popular comic strips including "Dick Tracy" and "Little Orphan Annie" it shows a domestic United States a world away from what had been seen as a European War. <br> <br>". the historic Chicago Tribune was an innovator in color inks and printing but also a pioneer in bringing colorful art in the form of illustrations photographs cartoons and advertisements to the average person in an everyday medium." see The Janet A.

Strategic map published in the Chicago Daily Tribune "The World's Greatest Newspaper" on June 5th 1942 two days after the Japanese attack on Dutch Harbor the site of the US army and navy bases in the Aleutians and as it transpired at the outset of the Battle of MIdway. The owner and proprietor of the Tribune Robert McCormick was staunchly against the United States entering the war and had firm views once it had occurred that American resources should not be used defending the British Empire. Famously the Tribune published the "Victory Program" Roosevelt’s military plan to prepare the United States for possible entry into World War II and was subject to prosecution for an alleged violation of the Espionage Act relating to the newspaper’s front-page account of the Battle of Midway 4-7 June 1942. It became an important test case for the limits of free speech and censorship during war-time. <br> <br>The Legend shows territorial Control of Ocean Areas marking Japanese Naval and Air bases as of 1941 and "according to latest reports" those established in the first six months of 1942. Also shown are pre-war sovereignties as at the bombing of Pearl Harbour on December 7th 1941. The Anson Archipelago is shown but a question mark "indicates islands etc. whose existence or give position is doubtful…". . Chicago Daily Tribune. unknown

[Yemen].
Manuscript map of Yemen Vilayet. [Probably Istanbul, ca. 1915].
Ca. 230 x 190 mm. Original hand-coloured map on tissue paper. In Ottoman script and Arabic. Hand-drawn map of the Yemen vilayet, distinctly outlining the sanjaks of Sana'a, Ta'izz, Hudeyde, and Asir, bordered by the Arabian Desert, the Hejaz vilayet, the Red Sea, and the Umman Sea. Maps such as this, executed on thin tracing paper, were commonly made as educational tools at elite Ottoman schools and universities during the early 20th century, although few such specimens survive. The manuscript notes suggest that the map was used for military purposes during the last Ottoman imperial period. - At the beginning of the 20th century, the vilayet covered an area of 200,000 square kilometers, its population having reached 2,500,000 by 1885. When World War I broke out, Imam Yahya remained nominally loyal to the Sultan but at the same time strove to negotiate with Britain. Turkish forces withdrew in 1918, and Imam Yahya strengthened his control over northern Yemen, creating the Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen. - Very well preserved.
