Very good. Some creasing and marginal mends with no loss; area of toning. Edge wear. Size 31 x 43 Inches. This is a rare 1962 pictorial map of the world, published by the electronics company Philips to promote and accompany their shortwave radio products. The author, not named, was probably J. (Jim) Vastenhoud, an engineer who produced a guide on behalf of Philips to instruct in using such maps for shortwave radio reception. A Closer Look The oval projection and its array of tables assist in making the appropriate choices of wavelengths, transmitters, and other elements, allowing the reception of shortwave transmissions from all over the world. In addition to the elegant projection and its functional data, the map is surrounded by engaging and stylish line drawings of transmitter towers in various global locations, which are exotic to the map's European audience. One tower shares a scene with Egypt's pyramids; another embraces American themes, including skyscrapers, a Totem pole, flannel-wearing log rollers, and a southwestern town with a cactus. A vignette conflating a wide area of Southeast Asia and Australia shows a pagoda, a working elephant, the Taj Mahal, and several kangaroos. Publication History and Census Philips published the map to accompany a guide in using shortwave radio by a G. Slot and a set of tables for using maps in conjunction with shortwave radio by Jacob Vastenhoud. Slot's guide was published in at least two languages (Dutch and English) by the Philips Technical Library. We see only one example of a map with this title in institutional collections held by the Bibliothèque National de France; it is not digitized, and we cannot confirm that it is the same edition. We see no other examples of this map on the market. References: OCLC 494807732.
