c.1934-35 map taken from an old atlas with lightly foxed (yellowed) paper, so some yellow taken out of the mix. I have digitally tidied up the surface of the page which had some distracting blobs and marks. - Map out of 'The New Pictorial Atlas of the World', pub. by Odhams Press, London WC2. I am unclear whether this is out of copyright as there is no date and no author editor name printed. Odhams also had a convoluted history. There seem to be two schools of thought on UK copyright ownership and I am not sure under which this image would fall... The first says variation is that map copyright (produced by a company) usually lasts for 70 years from the end of the year in which the map was published. The second variation applies to named individuals where copyright usually lasts for 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the last remaining author of the work died. Does either of these apply? I don't know. - The date of this work is thought to be around 1934-5 given the following clues in the text... The Saar Basin territory is featured on maps and was administered post-WW1 by The League of Nations till January 1935. The text also mentions somewhere that the written text is 14 years onward from the Versailles Treaty (June 28th 1919), which would put text creation around 1934. 70 years on from a 1935 company publication date puts this out of copyright in 2005. - BUT... the map is credited to George Philip & Son Limited, with a second reference to the London Geographical Institute. There are numerous members of the Philips family in the business bearing George Philip name. George Philip II (1823-1902) died age 78. The nephew, Thomas Dash Philip (1829-1913) took over the publishing businesses. Who was creating the atlas in 1935 is unclear. In 1987 the company was sold to Reed International. In 1998 Philip's became part of the Octopus Publishing Group, which Hachette Livre acquired in 2001. -
