Cara Geografica del Teatro Della Guerra in Africa e della Occupazione Italiana. By C. Ronchi, this map was a supplement to the Giornale il Secolo #6799. Shows early Italian possessions at Assab and Massaua. What is fascinating about this map is it shows the Africa coast as far south as current Somalia under the suzerainty of Egypt. Secondly, we see a diminished version of Abyssinia before Menelik was able to conquer the Horn to form present day Ethiopia. He was able to accomplish this with the guns provided by the Italians following their disaster at Adua in 1896.Size: 57x81. Scale 1:3000000.

Carta Panoramica della Tripolitania, Cirenaica e del Bacino Mediterraneo. Editori P. Giusti & C. Firenze. Published in 1911-1912. The interesting aspect of the map is it indicates how little the Italians controlled outside of the major coastal cities. Derna in particular was a contested area and this is reflected on the map by the lack of any area controlled outside the city. Greece is still a shadow of its current self and Egypt is shown as both English and Turkish. Population figures of Libyan cities as well as European and North African countries and their capitals are shown. 49x66cm. A rare map. SOLD
