Item Description

A  fine antique map from The Times Survey Atlas of the World

NEW ZEALAND

Provenance

The Times Survey Atlas and Gazetteer of the World by J.G. Bartholomew  More information

Published

London:  The Times Printing House, 1922. All the maps we are selling come from the same original 1922 atlas.

Cartographer

J.G. Bartholomew, Cartographer to the King.  More information

Size / Format

22.5" x 17.5" (57.6 cm x 44.8 cm). One fold in the centre. The margins are clean and range form 0.5" to 0.8" (1-2 cm) on all sides. These maps were all 'tipped in' to the atlas, which means they can easily be  removed as a single sheet with a fold in the centre.

Condition

Superior. The colors are bright and fresh. The maps themselves, and the margins, are very clean. There are no tears, stains, discolorations or soiling whatsoever. The atlas from which these maps were removed did NOT spend its life at a public library. It was part of a private collection and was treated very well.

Note that slight differences in the colours of the margins are the result of my scanner being just wide enough to capture the width of the map, but not all of the margins. So, the parts of the margins have been added on after scanning. All the maps have full, uniformly coloured margins, as issued.

Remarks

The publication of the Times Survey Atlas in 1922 was the culmination of six years of painstaking work and, with the combination of political and the physical colour range from dark green to dark brown to indicate elevation, it marked the beginning of the age of 'modern cartography.' It surpassed any atlas before it in terms of scope (112 double-page folio map) and accuracy. Many of the maps published in this atlas were used in other atlases in many countries as recently as the 1970s. These maps will look great framed and hung individually or, on a large wall, in groups.

This edition of The Times Atlas features about thirty polotical maps and about ninety maps that display both physical and political characteristics (the now-familiar use of green and brown to show elevation).

Map Size = 57.6 cm x 44.8 cm
