A very rare, large format map of Ukraine made by the General Staff of the German Army on the eve of Operation Barbarossa, the Nazi 'blitzkrieg' invasion of the Soviet Union, featuring advanced intelligence on the condition of highways and roads for the use of officers commanding tanks and armoured vehicles; the present example being a unique artefacts hailing from an archive of the 11th Panzer Division, featuring wartime manuscript additions of tank itineraries. Off-set print in 2 colours, with contemporary manuscript additions in crayon and pencil (Good, but with clear signs of field use, with wear and tears along old folds with some minor loss and some old repairs from verso, noticeable toning and staining especially to lower half, a chip of loss to righthand margin taking out just touch of the neatline), 74.5 x 96 cm (29.5 x 38 inches). This very rare and fascinating map depicts all of Ukraine and its road system and was made by the General Staff of the German Army in May 1941, the month before the Nazis launched Operation Barbarossa, their 'blitzkrieg' invasion of the Soviet Union. Their plan called for the swift conquest of Ukraine, not only as the Nazis coveted its fertile plains for 'lebensraum', but also because it provided the easiest route to the Baku Oil Fields, which could provide the Third Reich with the vast petroleum resources they desperately needed. Importantly, this particular example of the map comes from an original archive of the 11th Panzer Division and was clearly used by a Wehrmacht officer in theatre, as it features manuscript tank itineraries leading all across Ukraine. The present map was prepared by the War Maps & Surveying Department of the German General Staff from the very best intelligence. It is marked as a 'Sonderausgab nur fu?r den Dienstgebrauch' [Special Issue for official use only] and would have been classified for the exclusive use of senior officers and tank and armoured vehicle commanders. Given that the success of the German invasion of the USSR relied upon speed, a sophisticated knowledge of the routes fit for tanks and armoured vehicles was especially important. Thus, the present map would not have been merely helpful, but rather a vital necessity. The 'Zeichenerklärung' (Explanation of Symbols) describes the various types of transport routes featured on the map (often with the German terms accompanied by the corresponding Ukrainian terms transliterated into Latin), including: 'Autostraße' (Motorways); 'Hauptstraßen' (Major Roads); 'Fahrwege' (Provincial Routes); 'Hauptstraßen, parallel dazu zweite Fahrbahn im Bau' (Main Roads parallel to a second carriageway under construction); 'Hauptstraßen im Bau im Zuge eines bisherigen Fahrweges' (Main Roads under construction along the route of an existing road); and 'Hauptstraßen im Bau, Verlauf unsicher' (Main Roads under construction, route not secure). The map also delineates railways (primary and secondary), electrified railroads, as well as railways under construction. Additionally, the distances in kilometres are marked between key points along major routes, while the 'Bemerkungen ' (Comments) notes on the qualities of the thouroughfares in each category. Of note, the 'Autostraße Be Kiew-Brjansk-Moskva' (Kiev-Bryansk-Moscow Motorway) is marked as a straight, bold route and is described as 'Genauer Verlauf unbekannt' (exact route unknown), while the key major road leading east-southeast from of Kiev is described as 'verlauf unsicher' (route not secure). The Manuscript Additions to the Present Map - The present map comes from a larger archive of maps and documents regarding the 11th Panzer (Tank) Division. This corps was formed in August 1940 and served during the German invasion of Yugoslavia. The division joined the German Army Group South during Operation Barbarossa, and took part in the invasion of Ukraine, before moving up into Russia to participate in the unsuccessful attack upon Moscow, although the division fought with great skill and success in its own right. The 11th avoided capture at the Battle of Stalingrad (August 23, 1942 February 2, 1943) and aided the German retreat from the Volga and Donbass regions. As the Wehrmacht was progressively rolled back out of Ukraine in 1943-44, the 11th Panzer Division was almost completely destroyed at the Battle of the Korsun Cherkasy Pocket (January 24 February 16, 1944); what remained of the force was deployed to the Western Front for the remainder of the conflict. Upon the present map, the supposed routes of a group of 11th Panzer Division tanks is expressed by very neat lines made of baby blue and green dots. The dots seem to refer to an amalgam of various itineraries conducted in the summer of 1941, during Operation Barbarossa, as well as the division's operations during the gradual German retreat from Ukraine in the wake of the Battle of Stalingrad. Additionally, several towns, presumably of strategic interest, are distinguished in manuscript pink highlighting; the boundary lines of some of Ukraine's western oblasts are traced in green crayon; while some distances between key points in Eastern Ukraine are added in kilometres. Finally, the lower margin, is a pencil sketch of a junction in the Perekop area, on the isthmus that connects Crimea to the mainland. SEE OUR WEB PAGE FOR A LONGER DESCRIPTION.

Karte
Rare - a seminal map used for strategic planning by German commanders during the Sinai and Levant theatre of World War I, a classified work created under the supervision of the orientalist Franz Gustav Taeschner for the German General Staff, it depicts all details necessary to inform broad military movement during one of the most dramatic and surprising campaigns of the Great War. Colour print (Good, evenly toned, uneven folds and creasing mostly to margins, tack marks to corners), 68.5 x 55.5 cm (27 x 22 inches This rare and important map was made by the German Army high command during the height of World War I and depicts almost all of the critical Sinai-Levant theatre of the conflict, extending from Beirut and Damascus, in the north, down to the Suez Canal, in the southwest. In February 1915, the Ottoman-German forces (headquartered in Damascus) attempted to take the Suez Canal, the lifeline of the British Empire, and then hopefully Cairo (the British headquarters in the Middle East). However, in a campaign of brutal desert fighting that see-sawed back and forth, by January 1917, the British drove the German-Ottoman army out of the Sinai and into Palestine. After a great stalemate, the British eventually pushed their opposition northwards, taking Jerusalem in December 1917. After another protracted period of deadlock, in September 1918, after winning the Battle of Megiddo, they drove the Ottoman-German forces out of Palestine, and advanced to conquer Lebanon and most of Syria by war's end. While he is non the map as the author, the present map was prepared under the supervision of Franz Gustav Taeschner (1888 - 1867), subsequently a famous orientalist, who was then working as a mapmaker at the Kartographische Abteilung des Stellvertretenden Generalstabes der Armee in Berlin, the cartographic department of the General Staff of the German Army. The map, labelled, 'Nur fu?r den Dienstgebrach!' (For official use only!), was intended for use in strategic planning only by senor German and Ottoman officers and was the best general map of the region available at the time. The map is predicated upon a composite of the most recent surveys and features the most up-to-date information with regards to wartime infrastructure development. Areas of elevation are shown by careful shading, while coasts, rivers and wadis are precisely depicted. All cities, towns and villages of any import are marked, while, importantly, the map labels all railways (being major, small gauge, and proposed), as well as key roadn routraph lines; and the locations of wells (critically important in a desert land). Notably, the map depicts, the railway that the Ottoman-Germans completed running north-south down the heart of Palestine, from Tulkarm to Beersheba. To aid their venture in the Sinai they also built rail lines in southern Palestine down to and crossing the Egyptian boundary, along with a vast network of camps, forts and defensive works. Also shown is a good part of the Hejaz Railway that ran from Damascus down to Medina, providing the Ottomans with their only link to the Red Sea. The Suez Canal, the Ottoman-German side's key target, runs along the lower-left corner of the map. The present map was part of the 'Operationskarte' series that the German Army debuted early in the war to depict major conflict zones in Europe and the Middle East to a strategically useful scale of 1:800,000. The Operationskarte maps were the 'gold standard' of Central Powers cartography used during the early part of the conhe maps were evseded by the Karte von Mesopotamien und Syrien (a series of 29 adjoining maps), drawn to double the scale (1:400,000), covering all of the Levant and Southern Anatolia, while arching down to take in all of Iraq (the sheets were gradually rolled out between 1916 and 1918). A Note on Editions and Rarity - The present 'Beirut' Operationskarte appears to have be issued in two editions, with the present being the first edition (dated 1916), followed by another dated 1917. Both editions of the map were issued in small print runs for the classified use of senior field commanders, they were not be otherwise distributed or sold. Moreover, most examples, would have perished due to field use. Indeed, the present example shows signs of having been tacked up to a headquarters wall where it would have been presumably the focus of many a strategy session. While we can trace about a dozen or so examples in various libraries worldwide, examples the map only very rarely ever appears on tht. World War I in the Sinai aLevant - During World War I, the Suez Canal was the seminal lifeline of the British Empire, the funnel through which hundreds of thousands of troops and vast amounts of critical commodities flowed in to Europe from India, Australia, New Zealand and Malaya. The 100-mile long channel was also considered by the German-Ottoman side to be the 'weakest link' in Britain's global transport network. The Suez Canal was bordered on the east by the vast deserts of the Sinai Peninsula, beyond which was Ottoman Palestine. On one hand, the Sinai provided a level of protection for the Suez, as with no real roads, few waterholes and scorching temperatures that could reach 50 Celsius, it was notoriously difficult to cross. On the other hand, the place was so desolate that it would be difficult to detect any force that somehow managed to traverse the peninsula, leaving the Suez vulnerable to stealth attack. Moreover, a clear breach of the canal by a large enemy force would lea grave danger. SEE OUR WEB PAGE FODESCRIPTION References: Staatsbibliotek zu Berlin: Kart.
