1930182334London: Geographical Section General Staff War Office 1930. Later impression overprinted with a Cassini grid in 1930 following the first edition of 1926. This map of the Aden Protectorate and its neighbours was produced for the International Map of the World a project that aimed to create a complete world map at a 1:1000000 scale. It covers South Yemen and the Hadhramaut as well as the tip of French Somaliland. The International Map of the World or the Millionth Map of the World was first proposed by German geographer Albrecht Penck in 1891. The project was adopted by ten countries in 1909 who agreed to follow consistent rules and standards for mapping their own territories. While countries like the US and UK made strides at first "production was slow in the earlier years since it was first necessary to complete basic surveys for the required data and during and after World War II there was little interest in pursuing the project" Ency. Brit. Colour lithograph map 648 x 856 mm linen-backed perhaps not as issued key printed on recto; text in English and French. A little foxed dust-soiling slight wear and a few small holes along fold lines: a very good copy. unknown
1964182178Surrey: Directorate of Overseas Surveys 1964. Later edition printed in the second year of the protectorate. In addition to showing the states of Kathiri Mahra and Qu'aiti it also highlights the members of the Federation of South Arabia in colour and features three inset maps which show the entire region the island of Socotra and the State of Aden. The Directorate of Overseas Surveys was established in 1946 with responsibility for surveying parts of the British Empire that did not have the resources to otherwise map themselves. "The Directorate was charged with two key tasks. It was to provide national geodetic frameworks throughout the British Empire that would contribute to understanding the size and shape of the earth and constitute the basis for accurate mapping. It would also produce mapping using modern methods based on aerial photography. This would in turn help to inform the development and administration of each country" Natural Collection of Aerial Photography. This copy is the fourth edition. Colour map 324 x 406 mm printed on recto only key on recto. Map bright a little bowed sometime folded with a vertical crease at centre slightly creased at edges: a very good copy.

1976168409San a: Yemen Arab Republic Government 5 January 1976. Second edition labelled here as "The Yemen". It is drawn by the elusive cartographer usayn Abd All h Dham r here appearing as H. Althamary who also produced a map of San a . We have identified only six institutional copies on WorldCat at Exeter Leiden NLS Cornell LoC US Geological Survey. The first edition was published in Egypt in 1972 while an Arabic edition appeared in 1976. The map is in idiosyncratic English and marks the strategically important governorates of Taiz al-Bayda and Ma rib. Several words are misspelled including "drawen" "boundries" and "vally." The eastern border is left blank excluding the independent People's Democratic Republic of Yemen. A brief border war took place in October 1972 ending with the Cairo Agreement which proposed unification of the two Yemeni states. Each was backed by opposing Cold War powers: Saudi Arabia supported the Yemen Arab Republic while the Soviet Union backed the other. The two states ultimately united in 1990 as the Republic of Yemen.

1934164042London: His Majesty's Stationery Office 1934. First English-Arabic edition first impression of the diplomatic agreement which acknowledged "the complete and absolute independence of His Majesty the King of the Yemen the Imam and his kingdom in all affairs of whatsoever kind" p. 2. In June 1934 shortly after this agreement was concluded Ibn Saud and Imam Yahya signed the Treaty of Taif which brought an end to armed hostilities between the two countries. In this development Britain had played a major part with its support for Yemen and comparatively lukewarm stance vis-à-vis Ibn Saud helping to both precipitate military conflict and ultimately bring it to an end. The English text of the treaty without the ratifications was first published earlier in the year as HMSO Yemen No. 1. Octavo 232 x 151 mm pp. 11. Royal coat of arms of the UK on first page. Sometime disbound with no subsequent stitching. Small faint Admiralty ink stamp dated 14 December 1934 on first page.
