1939ref. 144331939. Archive of six large original World War II-era maps used by a United States Army soldier in the European Theater of Operations during the Allied liberation of Europe. Lithographed maps various issuers 1938-1939 wartime use 1944-1945. Beyond their immediate tactical utility these maps occupy a pivotal geopolitical moment. The Czech sheets document territories liberated by American forces in May 1945 particularly around Plzeň which marked the effective western limit of U.S. advance before demarcation lines were fixed with Soviet forces. Within months these same regions fell firmly within the Soviet sphere of influence formalized through postwar agreements and culminating in the 1948 Communist coup in Czechoslovakia. Cartographically borders administrative divisions and place names shifted to reflect the new socialist state while subsequent Eastern Bloc map production emphasized different political geographies aligned with Moscow. Thus these pre-Communist and German-printed sheets capture a fleeting interstice: cities momentarily under American military administration before incorporation into the Soviet Eastern Bloc. The 1938 promotional map of Czechoslovakia preserves the nation's pre-Munich territorial identity prior to its partition under Nazi pressure while the 1939 Hamburg map reflects the industrial heartland of the Third Reich before Allied devastation and Germany's eventual division into East and West. In this sense the archive charts not only wartime movement but the rapid redrawing of Europe's political landscape-where American operational cartography was almost immediately superseded by Cold War boundary-making. Sizes range from 19" x 24" to 34" x 22". The archive comprises detailed city and regional maps of western Czechoslovakia-Město Teplá 19" x 24" Plzeň Sheet 4151 24" x 19" black and white with green overlay Horšovský Týn Sheet 4150 24" x 19" and Kralovice Sheet 4051-together with a large 1938 promotional map of Czechoslovakia 34" x 22" and a 1939 German-printed map of Hamburg 28" x 24". All are original period printings retained by the soldier following his service. Good overall with expected wartime folds creasing and moderate wrinkling from field use and storage; no significant losses observed. A rare and materially resonant survival of Allied operational maps that document both the liberation of Central Europe and the swift geopolitical transformation that consigned much of that terrain to the Soviet Eastern Bloc rendering these sheets artifacts of a brief and transitional military presence. unknown books

Kupferstichkarte von 12 Platten mit Legende und sechs Kartuschen (darunter auch Veduten mit figürl. Staffage, u. a. eine Ansicht des Traunsees mit Gmunden u. Schloß Orth sowie Attersee mit Schloß Kammer), zus. auf Leinwand aufgezogen und auf zwei zeitgenössische Holzstäbe mit gedrechselten Knäufen montiert. 1280:1265 mm. Erste Ausgabe der großen Vischer-Karte von Oberösterreich, spätere Ausgaben sind 1762 und 1808 erschienen. “Die erste der großen Landkarten des Georg Matthäus Vischer ist die Karte von Oberösterreich. Ende des Jahres 1666 hat Vischer das Projekt den oberösterreichischen Ständen vorgeschlagen, im Mai 1667 erhielt er schon den Auftrag, Sommer 1667 ist er mit den Vermessungsarbeiten im Gelände beschäftigt, und im Winter desselben Jahres wird die Karte bereits gezeichnet. Am 21. Februar 1668 konnte Vischer die vollendete Karte den Ständen vorlegen” (Dörflinger/Wagner). Die vorliegende Karte gilt als die erste autoptisch aufgenommene, großformatige und detaillierte Karte von Oberösterreich und “diente einem der universalsten Barockkartographen, dem Venezianer Vincenzo Coronelli (1650-1718) als Vorbild” (Kat. Austria Picta, 56f.), der die vorliegende Karte 1692 für seinen ‘Corso Geografico universale’ in verkleinertem Format nachgestochen hat. - Durch die alte Montage und Aufhängung mit den üblichen Gebrauchspuren und an den Plattenkanten etwas rissig, das Leinen jedoch fachmännisch erneuert, einige kl. Fehlstellen retuschiert. Wie alle großformatigen Wandkarten des Barock selten, die vorliegende noch dazu in der originalen Fassung des 17. Jahrhunderts auf zwei hölzerne Rundstäbe montiert.
