1957rif. ABC_46260Tel Aviv: Israel Defence Forces General Staff 1957. Folded. 56 x 82.5 cm. Chromolithographic map of the Arabian Peninsula from Turkey in the north to the Indian Ocean in the south and covering Saudi Arabia Egypt Israel Palestine Jordan Syria Lebanon Iraq Iran Kuwait Bahrain Qatar United Arab Emirates Oman North and South Yemen. Scale 1:5000000. Scale and key in Hebrew inset to top-right inset explanatory panels in Hebrew and English compass rose in Saudi Arabia. Extremely rare Israeli strategic map of the Arabian Peninsula showing oilfields and associated infrastructure. Printed in black red and blue the map demarks the political boundaries of the time along with the areas covered by oil companies concessions. Pipelines form a web across the northern part of the Arabian Peninsula shown in an uncommon vertical orientation while oilfields and refineries large and small are also marked. The IDF probably made the map in responce to the 1956 Suez Crisis and its associated geopolitical shifts. With the Egyptians operating the Suez Canal and the USA forcing Britain and France to abandon their post-imperial plans Israel now counted in both U.S. and Soviet plans for their control of Middle Eastern politics. Britain had to anchor its Middle Eastern influence in Cyprus Aden and Iraq while the increased American influence can be seen in the huge swathe of territory assigned to Aramco. We have located only one institutional copy of this map in the National library of Israel.With traces of pins from former wall mounting. A couple of small light stains some uneven creasing and tears at the edges of some folds and a couple tiny holes where the folds cross. Otherwise in good condition. Israel Defence Forces, General Staff, unknown
1931rif. ABC_46004Greece Palestine Iran Iraq Egypt 1931. Oblong photograph album 20.5 x 32 cm. With 72 sepia photographs ca. 6 x 8.5 cm. Album of personal photographs commemorating a journey in 1931-1932 to the oilfields in modern Iran and Iraq by a trio of travellers which included the Reverend Philip "Tubby" Clayton 1885-1972 the founder of the Toc H movement. Several photographs show Galilee Jerusalem Rutbah Wells Ar-Rutbah and about 10 show "fields" mostly the main oilfield at Masjed Soleyman and its gas separator.In 1931 Clayton was invited by the director of the Anglo-Persian Oil Company the predecessor of the British Petroleum Company "to inspect the work among the Company units in Persia and the Middle East generally" Harcourt. Accompanied by two friends he travelled by plane train and boat to Lake Tiberias and further by plane to Rutbah Wells a British airfield where the group spent Christmas Eve with British Dutch and German travellers. On Christmas Day they reached Abadan and from there visited the oilfields near Tehran Ahvaz Haftkel Mohammerah Basra and Masjed Soleyman. After a journey to Cairo and Alexandria they boarded an oil tanker for the return journey to Britain. This journey inspired Clayton to plead passionately for improvements to the life of the crews of oil tankers. He described "carrying oil by sea" as "the most lonely job on the world's waters" Clayton. In 1940 he became chaplain of Anglo-Saxon Petroleum's tanker fleet and would subsequently sail on multiple tankers.The photographs must have been taken by Henry Pegg Chappell 1909-1997 since the other members appear he is the only member not present in the photographs and he does not and only Clayton who completed the journey by oil tanker. A carbon copy of a typed list describing all photographs is inserted in the album. Since typed and handwritten additions to the carbon paper refer to Clayton in the third person he probably typed the original list and gave Chappell this carbon copy to insert in his album.With an inscription probably by the three travellers on the title page. Binding slightly worn at the extremities. Paperclip and staple on the typescript rusted. In very good condition.l Clayton "In a tanker" in: The Times 9 March 1932 p. 15; Harcourt The impudent dreamer pp. 216-219. unknown
