Antique Map of Sumatra, Bangka Belitung and Riau in the Dutch East Indies, 1884
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique Map of Sumatra Bangka Belitung and Riau Dutch East Indies 19th Century This large and highly detailed antique map depicts the island of Sumatra together with the surrounding islands of Bangka, Belitung, and the Riau archipelago during the late Dutch colonial period. The map presents Sumatra in full length from north to south, showing the dramatic natural geography of the island alongside its political and administrative organization under Dutch rule. Note: We do not sell the frame but only the sheet. Mountain ranges, river systems, coastal profiles, inland roads, settlements, and colonial districts are all rendered with remarkable precision. The map clearly illustrates the strategic importance of Sumatra within the Dutch East Indies, including key ports, plantation zones, and regional divisions. The Strait of Malacca and adjacent maritime routes are prominently shown, underscoring the island’s role in international trade and colonial logistics. Original hand-applied color highlights administrative boundaries and coastal contours, creating a striking contrast against the finely engraved topographic detail. The palette remains refined and well balanced, with soft greens, reds, and yellows enhancing both legibility and decorative appeal. The overall composition is elegant, authoritative, and highly suitable for wall display. This map represents Sumatra at a pivotal moment in its colonial history, just prior to the major political changes of the twentieth century. It offers not only visual beauty but also important historical insight into the infrastructure, governance, and territorial organization of colonial Indonesia. Highly desirable for collectors of Southeast Asian cartography, Indonesian history, plantation-era studies, and large-format colonial wall maps. It also works exceptionally well in libraries, offices, boardrooms, and curated interiors where scale and historical depth are appreciated. Condition report Very good overall condition with light, even age toning and scattered minor foxing consistent with age. Original color remains fresh and well preserved. No major tears, no heavy staining, and no losses. Clean, strong impression. We do not sell the frame but only the sheet! Framing tips This wide-format map is best framed with soft ivory or warm light-grey museum matting and a slim dark walnut, bronze, or restrained gilt frame. UV-protective museum glass is strongly recommended. The panoramic format works especially well above desks, sideboards, and along long wall sections. Technique: Color lithography Maker: Dutch colonial cartographic publication, Amsterdam, 19th century Keywords: antique sumatra map, dutch east indies map, colonial indonesia map...

American Pottery Pig Bank, Circa 1880 s
Located in Incline Village, NV
American pottery still bank in the shape of a pig, used for saving coins (usually pennies) to encourage children the importance of thrift. Pottery still banks are somewhat scarce since the typical way to remove coins was to smash the bank open, albeit, with this particular example, perhaps a knife was used for coin removal (note the wear to the coin slot---see images) or perhaps the additional wear is also from many coins having been deposited. The bank is in good all original condition , from an unknown potter (unmarked) circa 1880's, and probably a variant of #633 "Two Toned Pig" in Andy Moore's "The Penny Bank Book" written in 1984 when collecting pottery banks...
