A propos de cet article

Sheet 61x52cm printed on both sides containing 2 maps, one of Acre in Mandatory Palestine, the other of Batroun on the north Lebanon coast. The latter is overprinted as cancelled, referring the user to the other side ("Annule / Voir au verso"), thus repurposing the sheet as part of a wartime economy. Good, folded, creased, with small burn hole partially touching the key. Very rare, with Worldcat locating 1 copy to the Hebrew University Mount Scopus Library (OCLC 907822864), with other editions registered for 1945 and 1946 also rare. The place of publication is not stated, but de Gaulle had moved the FFL HQ from London to Algiers in May 1943. The Acre side, printed in 2 colours (blue and black) and labelled in English and French, was compiled from 1:20,000 Palestine 1941, revised July-Oct 1942, and designed and printed by the Geographical Services of the Free French Forces (Service Geographique des F.F.L. - M.O.) in December 1943. The ancient port of Acre, at this time predominantly Muslim, served as the administrative and commercial centre of Acre district. The map shows Acre midway along the Mediterranean coast between El Mazraa (N) and Emek Zevulun (S), with coverage extending inland as far as Qal'at Jidin "Ruined Castle" (NE). Highly detailed, its fort, here labelled "El Manara", was then a British jail for the Zionist underground, among them Ze'ev Jabotinsky, and also Shlomo Ben-Yosef and Dov Gruner both of whom were executed there in 1938 and 1947 respectively. Also labelled are Sidney Smith Barracks where Syria and Britain would sign the Convention of Acre in 1945, the Government Stud Farm, and Farm Labour Camp. Other details include 3 classes of road, motorable tracks, tracks, footpaths, and difficult paths; railways (standard or narrow), mosques, tombs, towers, police posts, cultivation, woods, scrub, orchards, gardens, vineyards, olive groves, fences, enclosures, wireless etc. The cancelled side shows Batroun, Chekia Jedide, and Enfeh on the north Lebanon coast, partially cropped down to the size of the Acre map.…
