1750Pianta di Roma a proiezione verticale, orientata con il nord in alto.Incisa da R. Benning per il cartografo inglese John Rocque e basata sulla pianta di Giovan Battista Nolli del 1748."Come annunciato nel titolo (ripetuto anche in italiano e francese), si tratta di una diretta derivazione della pianta piccola del Nolli che l'autore ha voluto riportare nella scala in cui aveva già pubblicato la pianta della città di Londra. In basso a sinistra indice delle fabriche più ragguardevoli contenute nella pianta con 170 voci suddivise in sei colonne. In basso a destra dedica a Sir. Bouchier Wrey. Le emergenze architettoniche sono campite in nero ed il resto degli isolati a tratteggio diagonale. In basso a sinistra il nome dell'incisore R. Benning sc.

At the bottom left index of the most remarkable fabrications contained in the plan with 170 entries divided into six columns. Bottom right dedication to Sir. Bouchier Wrey.

1934ref. 158433Peiping.: Peiyang Press. circa1934. Coloured folding plan of Peking with original envelope. 60 x 50cm. A few neat repairs at folds two panels evenly browned on reverse. A very good copy of a scarce pictorial plan with its envelope. This delightful and scarce pictorial map of Peking with landmarks and streets in romanised Chinese with occasional Chinese characters is surprisingly scarce. Although apparently issued in several editions in the 1920s and 30s it appears relatively infrequently on the market. The divisions of the Legation District are indicated by their flags - this edition shows the German Legation by use of the black white and red bands of the German flag. This flag which was no longer used after 1935 helps date this edition. Other landmarks and attractions shown included theatres foreign shopping area adjacent to the legations quarter Liu Li Chang Curio District the racecourse the many city gates etc. .

1942ref. 206849Chicago.: 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. 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. ". 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.
