Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Twenty (of 21) colour printed maps, all 1st editions. Varying sizes, folded and stored in their original printed buff envelopes 24x30cm. The maps are mostly fine, neatly folded. I-207A has previous owner's ink stamp to lower right corner and some spotting. I-210A is VG with some rubbing along folds. The envelopes are good to near fine with some creasing and closed tears. I-216A is ink stamped "without relief" to the front. This series was one of the most significant products of the groundbreaking mapping project USGS conducted for the Saudi Government with Aramco during 1956-63. This mapped Saudi Arabia in 21 Quadrangles on a 1/500K scale with one series for geology (I-200A to I-220A) and another for geography (I-200B to I-220B). It involved some of the most eminent geologists of the day, among them Glen Brown (USGS), Richard Bramkamp and Max Steineke (Aramco's early pioneers). This series provided the foundation for the Saudi Arabian Mineral Exploration Project launched in 1963, coordinated by Brown from Jeddah, guiding fieldwork, and generating a series of Technical Letters and Reports. Included here are 20 of the 21 Quadrangles (I-208A Western Persian Gulf not present), but also including strategic and sensitive parts of Abu Dhabi and Oman before frontiers had been defined. Titled and captioned in English and Arabic, each has a detailed geologic commentary, compilation sources, glossary, compilation sources, cross sections, and Index Map. Features include settlements (including forts, ruins, cultivated areas, date gardens). Transport covers from roads to camel trails, rail and landing fields. Among these are named ancient routes such as the Darb Zubaydah, Darb al Khaif, and Darb al Hajj (eg I-202A). Hydrographic features include wells, drilled water wells, wadis etc. Hypsographic features include types of sand, terrain, sabhkah, silt flats etc. QUADRANGLES: I-200A Wadi as Sirhan (Bramkamp, Brown, Holm, Layne, 1963, 142x112cm) // I-201A Jawf-Sakakah (Bramkamp, Ramirez, Steineke, Reiss, 1963, 103x108cm) // I-202A Darb Zubaydah (Bramkamp, Ramirez, 1963, 104x103) // I-203A Wadi al Batin (Bramkamp, Ramirez, 1959, 102x103cm).
