No evidence that the "Ocean Chart" was made by Henry Holiday[edit]

In "The Hunting of the Snark" there are ten illustrations and the illustrations to the front cover and the back cover. Nine illustrations (engraved by Joseph Swain) plus the front&back cover illustrations are made by Henry Holiday (1839-1927). The poetry is by Lewis Carroll [Real name: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832-1896). For the map, typesetting has been used. I think that Carroll designed the map and then commissioned a typesetter to make the printing plate (https://snrk.de/page_the-ocean-chart/). --DL5MDA (talk) 09:52, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
