I have acquired another four maps of Anglo-Egyptian-Sudan. These maps are printed on a quality cotton and appear to have been produced in the late 1930’s. From the notes on them they would appear to be private purchase. They are quite detailed and have interesting comments on them in respect of water, terrain, etc.
