Extensive Collection of Original 1960s Nautical Charts From Around The World

We recently acquired a collection of these stunningly detailed nautical charts or maps detailing numerous well known destinations around the globe including: the UK, English Channel, the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands, the Balearic's, West Indies and more...

They're all from the same source and around the same dates; 1962-1964 making them almost 60 years old. Some are in colour, others are greyscale and they contain various amazing details including ocean depth measurements, submarine exercise areas, on shore buildings and streets and topographical representations too!

On the whole they're in good to very good condition with only a few having pencil writing which at least proves they were working charts! Most of them are crease folded by design and have light marks and soft edges - that is, they have been used, thumbed and corner creased a little. The photos show any major damage (to a few) which is reflected in the prices. Please remember these charts are not new or reprints - they are original working maps and their condition reflects their age and use.

The photos include artists impressions of how these might be used and displayed plus a selection of close-ups to show the detail of these wonderful charts.

They make great presents, decoration, framed prints and more...click here for more charts from the series...
