Color Relief Map of Abyssinia and War Zone : specially drawn for the Daily Herald. (by) S.J. Turner.
List No

Note
Color relief map by S.J. Turner representing a bird's eye view from space encompassing a wide swath of the globe from Italian Somaliland at the lower edge of the map to Morocco and Italy at the upper edge of the map, just below a distant horizon of the earth's curvature. The style brings to mind the work of Richard Edes Harrison who used this "aviation age" cartography to great effect during World War II. As with the maps of Harrison, the perspective emphasises the proximity of areas than might appear further removed on a "conventional" map - an important realisation when times of crisis. On the map it is noted that "This map is divided into 200-MILE SQUARES shown in perspective." Shows international boundaries, railways. major cities, and rivers. Includes European possession in Africa. Relief shown by shadings.
