193874971N.p.: South Manchuria Railroad. ca. 1938. This map has no date that we can see but history would likely place it at the end of the 30s. It is a full color and artistic panorama measuring 40 1/2 x 8 inches. The color map is on the recto and the verso is filled with text and illustrations of all the desirable and holy sites that the train's path goes through. The eight panels show the area of Kongosan or the Diamond Mountains. Some soiling to front panel and a recurring 1 inch tear to top border of each panel. Very bright and attractive.In 1910 Japan formally annexed Korea as a colony although in actuality Japan had been ruling Korea in some manner since 1876. The Japanese felt that their growing empire needed a buffer zone between the other two powers in the regions; China and Russia. Manchuria was also rich agricultural land with vast fields of soy. The laying out of a railway is a godd method of establishing borders so the Japanese were quick to lay down tracks. The Diamond Mountain or the Kumgang Mountains are a mountain/mountain range with a 1638-metre-high 5374 ft Birobong peak in Kangwon-do North Korea. It is about 50 kilometres 31 mi from the South Korean city of Sokcho in Gangwon-do. It is one of the best-known mountains in North Korea. The area often called "12000 Peaks" is one of the most revered sites for natural beauty on the Korean penisula. Koreans have perceived Kumgangsan as their muse since well before the Middle Ages. Practically every poet and artist who lived during the Joseon dynasty 1392-1910 made a pilgrimage to Kumgangsan. Among other well-known works are the Geumgang jeondo and the Pungaknaesan chongramdo painted in the 1740s by Jeong Seon. It was an area of religious interest as well and there were as many as 400 monasteries in the area. South Manchuria Railroad. unknown

1902220266Japan. No date. Circa1902. Two very attractive colour folded manuscript maps one showing China and the other Korea. <br> <br>Map of China: Watercolour map 48 x 63.5cm. Closed tear now professionally repaired. <br> <br>Map of Korea: Finely detailed watercolour map a few tiny holes very neatly repaired on the verso with archival washi. 33 x 24.5cm Two delicate hand-painted maps one of China and one of Korea produced by a Japanese student cartographer named Koike Tokushige 小池徳重. <br> <br>The undated map of China appears to have been produced in the first five years of the twentieth century: a time when Japan had recently colonized Taiwan and when Japanese economic and political interest in the region was rapidly expanding. The inscription on the map suggests that it was a third year college project. But the high level of detail suggests that the artist had considerable experience of map making. The map of China shows the main provinces rivers major transport routes the Great Wall and the location of key cities although the names of the cities are not included. It also shows outlines of the Korean Peninsula Taiwan and the Japanese island of Kyushu but not the rest of Japan. <br> <br>The map of Korea is more detailed. It provides an accurate outline of the Korean Peninsula with careful hatching indicating changes in elevation. Rivers and major road routes are shown on the map and the locations of major towns are marked though only Busan and Incheon are named. Dotted lines show coastal sea routes and routes between Kyushu and Busan and between Incheon and China. The map shows the Gyeongin railway line between Seoul and Incheon which was completed in 1899 and route of the Gyeongbu railway line between Busan and Seoul whose construction started from both ends in 1901. But the map depicts only small sections of this line close to Seoul and Busan as being completed with the rest more lightly outlined to show the projected route implying that the map was drawn around 1901-1902 and certainly before the Gyongbu line was opened in 1904. <br> <br>Inserted text gives the land area and population of Korea. Rather strangely though the figure given for the Korean population is vastly underestimated. Ikeda gives this as 5.7 million when in fact at that time is was around 18 million. . unknown

1923220274Taisho 12 1923. Over fifty black and white photographs annotated laid down in concertina style cloth covered photograph album 18 x 26.5cm most photographs measure 9.3 x 13.5cm nine measure 10 x 7cm. Some silvering of photographs but most are in very good condition. A fascinating concertina-folded album of high-quality photos dating from 1923 and showing Japanese military training exercises in northeastern Korea as well as scenes of everyday life in the surrounding region including the Ranam Cheongjin Hoeryong and Gando areas. Many of the photos appear to have been produced by a professional photographer but acquired by the soldier who has created this album who has added his own annotations based on personal experience. <br> <br>The first photo shows an inset portrait of a soldier named Takuuchi next to the flag of the Japanese Imperial Army's 75th Infantry Division. This is followed by a series of photos of Japanese colonial buildings in Korea including the military base of the 75th Infantry Base an overview of the city of Hoeryong on which the owner has placed a cross in ink marking the location of the recently contructed Hoeryong Shinto Shrine Heoryong's hospital and railway station and a street in the city centre an overview of Cheongjin and a panoramic overview of Ranam City also with the Ranam Shinto Shrine marked with a cross. The attention paid to these shrines which were crucial symbols of Japanese colonial rule emphasises the album creator's nationalist sentiment. There are two images of the landscape of the Tuman River and a photo of sacks of soy beans being unloaded in Gando. Other photos show scenes of everyday life including women washing clothes and grinding grain and two photos of a Korean wedding ceremony. A few of these photos including one of a village of thatched-roofed houses are in a smaller format than the images in the rest of the album and may have been taken by the album's owner himself. Twenty of the photos show 1923 training exercises conducted by the 75th Infantry Division in the Ranam area. These have also been annotated with the album owner's comments providing extra information about the content of the photos. The album concludes with two striking images of thick ice on a river probably the Tuman and of the Hoeryong Shinto Shrine in late evening. . hardcover
