Description

Excellent Golden-Age of Illustration Fantasy Map of the lands of Forty Isles of G. Robinson -- A Voyage of Self Discovery

Scarce fantasy pictorial map -- very much of the period in terms of cultural and social values. "Fortunately for him, he found some wild Tobacco and so made quite a good brand of cigar, which he called Flor de Lonelios, and these he smoked in great content.". Hard to imagine writing this in a modern children's book!

The map was published in Traveller's Joy A Device, written by Dion Clayton Calthrop and illustrated by Gilbert Pownall.

Carte Genealogique de la Maison Imperiale d'Autriche & les Differentes Branches qu'elle a Formees Accompagnee des Trophees des Armes Imperiales & d'Espagne..."

This is a fascinating genealogical tree, made during the dying days of more than 300 years of uninterrupted Habsburg rule. The genealogy of the Habsburgs is traced back for, at certain points, over 30 generations to the counts of Tyrol (seen to the right of the map) and the first German kings (to the left of the map). Several extinct offshoots of the family are shown, with the main Habsburg line in the center. At the time, this family controlled large portions of Europe, with their primary holdings concentrated in Austria and Spain.
