Dear MapHisters,
Is anybody able to help a non-subscriber, Roger Vella Bonavita (W Australia)
who is writing on Malta and searching for a map formerly in the collection of G
H Beans, passed to Tall Trees Library, but eventually sold separately when the
remainder of the Beans collection was broken up. See Imago Mundi , vol VI
'Notes from the Tall Tree Library' pp32/3.
The map is titled 'Pianta della Cit[ta di Mal]ta Uechia'
It shows the old capital of Malta. Beans ascribed it to Gabrio Serbelloni
together with plans of fortifications in Sicily and North Africa, dating them
all to the period around the mid 1570's.
If anybody is able to point Mr Vella Bonavita in the right direction, I shall
be pleased to forward your message .
Please write to me off list if you prefer.
