14691Set of two large vintage albumen prints in sepia tone depicting life in the desert landscape of Aden c. 1870 now Yemen. Both photos depict the rugged landscape and village life typical in this region of the Arabian Penninsula. The first image foreground presents Arab men gathering with their camels around a well in the foreground while a carriage and horse wait at a bridge in the background. The reservoir of Attawila which dominates the image had been designed in medieval times to capture rain water during flash floods for drinking; while the resevoir fell out of use in the 16th century the British revived their function in the 19th century. Today the monuments draw tourist attention. The second image shows travelers in motion on a dirt road leading to the city walls set between the precipices of Aden. Defensive ramparts traverse the mountain top. The first image measures approximately 8"x11" and is mounted on a photographer's matt with labels " Aden B.F.R. Rives." The second image measures approximately 7"x10" mounted on blue photographer's matt with label "Aden.- Route conduisant a la ville arabe d' Aden.-" Both overall in very good condition. unknown books

1950141716Aden & Yemen: 1950s. Into the remote places" - policing tribal disturbances in the Arabian Peninsula from the air A compelling archive of rare documents and maps. RAF operations in Aden and Yemen represented a late phase of the imperial air-policing strategy advanced by Churchill in the 1920s in response to post-Great War demobilization and Britain's expanding responsibilities in the Middle East and Africa. Claimed as a naval base on the East India route in 1839 and strengthened after the opening of the Suez Canal Aden relied on tribal treaties but as the Protectorate expanded over-stretched ground forces prompted RAF deployment from 1928 as an economical means of control. Airstrips centred on RAF Khormaksar - motto "Into the Remote Places" - supported reconnaissance leaflet-dropping and punitive strikes that helped secure the Anglo-Yemen Treaty of Friendship 1934 and later frontier policing. Reversal followed in 1954-55 with the loss of Robat while the Suez Crisis intensified unrest and Yemeni pressure leading to air attacks covert tribal agitation intervention in Oman and escalation of the frontier war into Yemen during 1958-59. The present material belongs to this volatile final phase preceding federation in 1963. Central to these operations were maps produced by the Joint Air Reconnaissance Intelligence Centre a discreet intelligence organization rooted in pre-war MI6 work. It was formalized during the Second World War and renamed in 1953 following the adoption of radar-scope photography. Headquartered at RAF Brampton and having Middle East offices in Cyprus and a detachment at Aden JARIC processed high-altitude imagery from Canberra PR9 and Victor aircraft. The archive comprises secret air-liaison instructions annotated operational maps a frontier-war-marked sketch map of Ahwar a Middle East Air Force memorandum on oxygen-mask trials RAF pilot log cards and a Khormaksar wall shield - rare survivals of evident operational use and a tangible record of Britain's final armed presence in southern Arabia. Small archive of maps memos and other documentation as detailed above. General signs of handling commensurate with active service use but overall very good. Major Michael A.

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.
