Notes:
This elaborate brochure details 137 instances of alleged "robbery" of territory by England, from the Virginia colony in 1584 to the "Coalition War of 1939." Each era of colonization or conquest is shown by a different (cumulative) plastic overlay on a world map. This is the final overlay, showing the developments during the period 1920-1939 in red. The cover (ID #1284.01) shows greedy hands with talons (presumably English) squeezing blood from the world.
