The Commonwealth of Nations, or the British Empire

1937

  • Issued for the coronations of King George VI, this is the British Empire at its proud apex. Perhaps the most ornate map we've had for the empire, it's surrounded with a golden decorative cartouche and two quotes espousing the Empire's invincibility and power of endurance. With British possessions highlighted in red throughout the world, it's a dramatic map and a quaint momento of the British era.
