First edition of this essential HHGCB mileage guide issued just weeks before Pearl Harbor and the entry of the United States into World War II. Originally established in 1936 after the passage of the Reed-Bulwinkle and Interstate Commerce Commission Acts the HHGCB organized to file the required mileage tariffs with the ICC and issued this guidebook. This mileage guide contained maps from the Rand McNally Co. together with charts to determine highway distances between principal points in the United States and allow transport charges to be computed. This guidebook offers an essential snapshot of not only the existing transportation network during World War II but also the vital routes of trucking goods across the country locally or into Canada and Mexico prior to the creation of the Interstate Highway System later authorized in 1956 by President Eisenhower. The supplement updated many of the mileage references following the War acknowledging the tremendous build-up of infrastructure during and in Post-War America. The HHGCB continued to operate in assorted consolidations and mergers until the 2007 decision eliminating all motor carrier rate bureaus.

CHATELAIN Henri Abraham (1684 - 1743)MareMagnum

Rome Ancienne et Moderne

1708Pianta a proiezione verticale, orientata con il nord a sinistra. "Questa pianta assai schematica deriva come base di rappresentazione dalla pianta grande del Falda e non da quella del De Rossi come sostenuto in passato dall'Huelsen. Raffigura Roma attorno al 1700: manca infatti non solo la scalinata di Trinità dei Monti realizzata tra il 1721 e il 1725 come notato da Scaccia Scarafoni ma anche il porto di Ripetta realizzato nel 1704 e gli interventi dovuti a Innocenzo XII ma la poca definizione del disegno non consente di verificarlo con certezza. I lotti edificati non hanno campitura ma una fitta serie di 320 numeri e varie lettere che rimandano alla legenda disposta ai due lati della pianta. è invece rappresentato con maggiore cura il disegno dei giardini e delle ville" (cfr. Marigliani p. 255). Opera tratta dall'Atlas Historique, pubblicato ad Amsterdam tra il 1705 e il 1720. Incisione in rame, finemente colorata a mano, in perfette condizioni. Henri Abraham Chatelain (1684 - 1743) era un pastore ugonotto di origini parigine. È meglio conosciuto come cartografo olandese e più specificamente per il suo contributo cartografico nell’Atlas Historique in sette volumi, pubblicato ad Amsterdam tra il 1705 e il 1720. Innovativo per il suo tempo, l'Atlas Historique combinava incisioni e opere d'arte con studi di geografia, storia, etnologia, araldica e cosmografia. Alcuni studiosi suggeriscono che l'Atlas Historique non fu compilato esclusivamente da Henri Chatelain, come si crede comunemente, ma piuttosto fu un'impresa familiare che coinvolse Henri, suo padre Zacharie e suo fratello, sempre Zacharie. Bibliografia Huelsen (1915): n. 129b; Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): n. 219; Marigliani (2007): p. 255, n. 162. Vertical projection map of Rome, oriented with the north on the left. This very schematic plan derives as a basis of representation from the large map of Falda and not from that of De Rossi as claimed in the past by Huelsen. It depicts Rome around 1700: in fact, not only the Spanish Steps are missing, made between 1721 and 1725 as noted by Scaccia Scarafoni, but also the port of Ripetta made in 1704 and the interventions due to Innocenzo XII, but the poor definition of the drawing does not allow to verify with certainty. The built lots do not have a field but a dense series of 320 numbers and various letters that refer to the legend placed on the two sides of the plan. It is instead represented with greater care the design of gardens and villas (cf. Marigliani p. 255). Taken from "Atlas Historique" , this sheet includes a small map of the northern hemisphere including all of Europe and Asia and most of Africa, above the horn. Henri Abraham Chatelain (1684 - 1743) was a Huguenot pastor of Parisian origins. He is best known as a Dutch cartographer and more specifically for his cartographic contribution in the seminal seven volume Atlas Historique, published in Amsterdam between 1705 and 1720. Innovative for its time, the Atlas Historique combined fine engraving and artwork with scholarly studies of geography, history, ethnology, heraldry, and cosmography. Some scholarship suggests that the Atlas Historique was not exclusively compiled by Henri Chatelain, as is commonly believed, but rather was a family enterprise involving Henri, his father Zacharie and his brother, also Zacharie. Copper engraving, with fine later hand colour, in excellent condition. Literature Huelsen (1915): n. 129b; Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): n. 219; Marigliani (2007): p. 255, n. 162.
