Neumarkt am Mieresch, ungar. Marosvásárhely) in Siebenbürgen. - Bei der in den Jahren 1822-25 entstandenen Ansicht der Stadt aus der Vogelschau handelt es sich um die bis dahin genaueste topographische Aufnahme der Stadt, die bis zum Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts unübertroffen bleiben sollte. Vorangegangen waren dem vorliegenden Blatt lediglich zwei kleinere und recht ungenaue Veduten von 1736 bzw. 1750; die früheste bei Nebehay/Wagner genannte Ansicht der Stadt datiert überhaupt erst von 1840. Die eingedruckte Legende im unteren weißen Rand benennt die wichtigsten Gebäude und Monumente, dazwischen ein Adler das Stadtwappen haltend. - Breitrandig mit umlaufendem Plattenrand und sehr sauber. Minimale Randläsuren außerhalb des Passepartoutausschnittes fachmännisch restauriert. Von größter Seltenheit. Keresztes Gyula.

Lithographed map, single sheet. 455 x 560 mm (image size), 516 x 645 mm (sheet size). Scarce lithographed map of southern Palestine showing the travel route of the German orientalist Ulrich Jasper Seetzen (1767-1811), designating landmarks like Petra and Saint Catherine's Monastery on the Sinai Peninsula, as well as geological features. The main map shows Seetzen's itinerary from the Be'er Sheva area to its intersection with the Egyptian caravan road from Mecca to Cairo, flanked in the east by Al-Sharah mountains and the Gebalene region. An inset depicts the continuation of the route from there to Mount Sinai, while another contains a detailed plan of the mountain. Features comments on soil fertility as well as labels of notable settlements, mountains, streams, and wall remains encountered along the route. - Prepared by A. Bräunig, the map was issued as plate 3 in the fourth volume of Seetzen's posthumous travelogue series "Reisen durch Syrien, Palästina, Phönicien, die Transjordan-Länder, Arabia Petraea und Unter-Aegypten", published from 1855 to 1859. - Very well preserved.

7 colour printed maps. Scale 1:50,000 and 1:1,000,000. In English and Arabic. Folded. First edition. A set of exceedingly rare UAE topographic maps, compiled from 1:30,000 scale aerial photography taken during 1986 and 1987, presumably based on UK versions. The maps show international boundaries, tracks and paths, bridges, historical landmarks, schools, tree and date plantations, mangroves, oil and gas injection wells, mosques and cemeteries, emergency telephones, water pipelines and tanks, cliffs and rocky areas, as well as other details encountered in the vast desert. Occasionally the average relative height of the dunes is given, reaching up to 45 metres at certain points. - The 6 maps of the 1:50,000 series are sheets number NF-40-01-14, NF-40-01-22, NF-40-01-34, and NF-40-02-11, as well as NG-40-13-54, and NG-40-13-63. The maps of this series "were used extensively for UTM [Universal Transverse Mercator projection coordinate system] Zone 39 rectification. These maps have a local UAE national grid which is equivalent to the UTM grid if a bias of 2,150,000 m in the y-dimension and 150,000 m in the x-dimension are added" (Jensen). The single map of the 1:100,000 series, dating from 1992, is sheet number NG-40-136. - Some pencil marks and circles. The 1:50,000 scaled maps have a stamped six-digit number and a round stamp in Arabic type on the reverse; the 1:100,000 scaled map has a square stamp in Arabic type on the reverse. A few small tears and creases; occasional adhesive tape; paper variously pierced. No copies traceable in libraries internationally.

Darüber hinaus ergeben die detaillierte Wiedergabe des Grundrisses der Innenstadt [...] und die in freier Perspektive festgehaltenen Vorstadtränder eine grundlegende Dokumentation Wiens (Wien im Mittelalter, Kat. des Historischen Museums der Stadt Wien, 1975/6, Nr. 364). - Nur zwei der neun Segmente unbedeutend fleckig, am rechten unteren Rand etwas bestoßen, im Ganzen aber von sehr ansprechender Erhaltung.

Ca. 230 x 190 mm. Original hand-coloured map on tissue paper. In Ottoman script and Arabic. Hand-drawn map of the Yemen vilayet, distinctly outlining the sanjaks of Sana'a, Ta'izz, Hudeyde, and Asir, bordered by the Arabian Desert, the Hejaz vilayet, the Red Sea, and the Umman Sea. Maps such as this, executed on thin tracing paper, were commonly made as educational tools at elite Ottoman schools and universities during the early 20th century, although few such specimens survive. The manuscript notes suggest that the map was used for military purposes during the last Ottoman imperial period. - At the beginning of the 20th century, the vilayet covered an area of 200,000 square kilometers, its population having reached 2,500,000 by 1885. When World War I broke out, Imam Yahya remained nominally loyal to the Sultan but at the same time strove to negotiate with Britain. Turkish forces withdrew in 1918, and Imam Yahya strengthened his control over northern Yemen, creating the Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen. - Very well preserved.
