Catalogue Note

This fascinating New World Moral Map was completed in October 1941 and printed in Philadelphia in 1942, by Maurice Gomberg, three years before the end of World War Two, and just before the adoption of the United Nations Charter by the United States.

“Below the map are printed no less than forty-one forecasts of the future shape of the world for permanent peace, freedom, justice, security and world reconstruction. At the time of writing this some fifty years later, many have come to pass” (Wardington Catalogue).
