1970ABC_46826Iraq: Central Statistical Organization 1970. Original printed publisher's wrappers. Folio 28.5 x 21 cm. With multiple graphs on 8 leaves most of them in the text. The main price-information is arranged in tables all tables and other introductory information are printed on 1 side of the leaves from right to left on the recto side of the leaves excluding the information in English which has from that perspective been printed on the verso side of the leaves. A statistical overview of the changes in wholesale and retail prices of among other things agricultural animal electronic and textile products in Iraq during the second half of 1970. The elaborate information gathered and presented in the present work by the index numbers & prices department of the central statistical organization of the ministry of planning of the Republic of Iraq has mostly been arranged in tables supplemented with some graphs. The information is organised by general geographical districts in the north middle and south of the country and assessing the prices of products on markets in Baghdad the capital of Iraq separately as its own densely populated district. The present work was published as a supplement to the original bulletin on prices for the first half of 1970 in an effort to bridge the gap in data supply as the Index numbers & Prices department tried to change the publishing frequency from once or twice a year to quarterly and eventually to monthly statements on the changing prices. The information is presented both in Arabic and in English for the purpose of providing a wider range of people and organisations with the information. The Arabic information of course reads from right to left and the tables with the information in both languages are oriented in the same way and the English list of contents and introductory information can be found at the back of the work to be read from left to right. Iraq experienced considerable economic development during the second half of the 20th century. By 1980 its complex central state-planned economy had become the second largest economy in the Arab world after Saudi Arabia. To achieve such development people had to keep a close eye on changing wholesale and retail prices in order to keep changes in inflation and purchasing power in check.Wrapper worn and stained with a blue stamp on the wrapper with the title in Arabic front or back wrapper some staining to the first 4-5 leaves at both English and Arabic ends of the work otherwise internally good and clean.

1951182329London: Ordnance Survey 1951. Later editions marked "restricted" revised from those produced by the War Office in 1941-42 and with isogonals correct to 1953. They show the international borders between Iran and Iraq but warn that they are still under negotiation. These maps are in a variety of later editions all printed in 1951 Baghdad fifth; Basra eighth; Tehran third; Bushehr fourth. This was a critical year in Iranian politics as the country underwent the Abadan Crisis saw the assassination of Razmara and the election of Mosaddeq. In the same period Iraq saw a number of anti-government protests including the 1952 Iraqi Intifada against the Anglo-Iraqi Treaty. Over these years British and American forces kept close watch on the region's development and likely printed these maps printed on rayon as escape items to issue to forces in case fighting broke out. Escape maps were first introduced by MI9 during the Second World War designed to be easily smuggled into POW camps. They were printed on silk and for "good reasons: silk is flexible and durable in a way that paper is not and it is noiseless when hidden about one's person" Bond. They continued to be issued throughout the 20th century and into the modern day especially during the 1960s and the Vietnam War. 2 sheets of rayon 596 x 715 mm; 610 x 676 mm colour map on each side key on map of Tehran; text in English and French. Sometime folded edges fraying more so to sheet of Baghdad and Basra: a very good copy. Barbara A. Bond "Escape and evasion maps of World War II" The British Library 2016. unknown

2002162482London: DGIA Ministry of Defence 2002. First edition stretching from Baghdad to Basrah and showing all of Kuwait. The sheet was likely issued to RAF pilots in the run up to the Iraq War and is printed on rayon for ease of use and durability. These charts produced by the Defence Geographic and Imagery Intelligence Agency feature many warnings about flying within controlled airspace in Iraq and Saudi Arabia. The RAF flew many missions over this region in the lead-up to the Second Gulf War and in Operation Telic. "The first documented intimations of UK involvement in the operation that became Telic can be traced to March 2002. In May the Chief of the Defence Staff CDS was advised of a potential RAF contribution to a future operation in Iraq comprising 88 fast jets and 38 support platforms - more aircraft than the RAF had deployed on a single operation since the First Gulf War and more in all probability than it will ever deploy again" Ritchie p. 5. A formal plan was drafted in August to overwhelm Hussein's government through multiple co-ordinated fronts of which the RAF's role was to eradicate the enemy air force destroy equipment support ground forces and strike important targets to shock the Iraqi people. According to the key there was another sheet issued charting northern Iraq. Single sheet of rayon 912 x 1300 mm colour map with key on recto and verso. Sometime folded and thinning along lines: a near-fine copy. Sebastian Ritchie "The Royal Air Force in Operation Telic: Offensive Air Power March-April 2003" 2021. unknown
