  1. Hello, Does anyone have any ideas, please, on how I could go about tracking down an image by the artist AE Taylor that appears in an Odhams Press book dating from the 1940s-1960s? The image in question is a hand-drawn map of the world that is used in the end-papers of "The World's Greatest Wonders" published by Odhams Press. (There's no publication date for the book, but thanks to Professor Google, I think there could have been several editions, possibly between the late 1940s and late 1950s.) The map is signed "A E Taylor 1937". A crop of the map would be perfect for a blog I'm creating. However, the end-papers are cut in such a way that the bit of the map most relevant to the blog is missing; even if I joined the two edges together, there would still be a chunk missing, anbd it is - for me, anyway - the absolute best chunk. I know I'm making a fuss about nothing, and it's easy enough to find another picture, but if I could find an intact version of this one, it would be soooo perfect. I would try my best to get permission from AE Taylor's descendants before using it, but at the very least I would credit/acknowledge AE Taylor as the artist. I can't find any information about A E Taylor him/herself. there are maps by A E Taylor for sale on t'internet, but not this particular one. I would have contacted Odhams themselves, but they were taken over by IPC a few decades ago, and IPC was, in turn. taken over by Time Inc a couple of years ago. I did email customer service at Time Inc but they never got back to me. Hence my appeal to you... Like I said, I know this is a really minor issue (especially when compared to all the bad stuff happening in the world right now), but if anyone could help with either information or suggestions of possible sources of information, that would be so great. Thanks for reading! Alison.
