[Svalbard - six sketch maps and views of Adventure Bay and King's Bay] Appendix 1.

[Svalbard - six sketch maps and views of Adventure Bay and King's Bay] Appendix 1.

[probably lithographed by Maclure and MacDonald.]
[n.d., c.1900.]
Sheet of lithographic maps and sketches. 220 x 450mm (8¾ x 17¾"). Original binding folds.
Sketch maps and views highlighting coal deposits on Svalbard (Spitsbergen). Coal was discovered in the 1890s, and the British opened a year-round operation in Adventure Bay (Adventfjorden) in 1904. This scarce sheet is probably from a prospectus for the company setting up operations.
