This rare small atlas for primary schools, includes colour maps of the different parts of the world with their new boundaries, changed by the World War II., and black and white photos of cities. The atlas was published by the Italian Fascist government for the regions, annexed after 1941.
The atlas was adjusted to Slovenian language and geography. This edition includes a map of the Province of Ljubljana (Provincia di Lubiana), a Fascist political formation in the central Slovenia, existing from 1941 until the capitulation of Italy in 1943. After that is was taken over by Germany.
Luigi Visintin (1892 – 1958) was an Italian cartographer, born in Friuli, a region with Italian and Slovenian population. After WWI, he finished his studies as a cartographer in Torino and was employed by the Instituto Geografico De Agostini in Novara, the cartographic institute, responsible for a wide repertoire of maps and atlases, commissioned by the Fascist government.
We could only find 5 institutional examples, all in the Slovenian libraries.

Atlas hii ndogo ya shule za msingi inajumuisha ramani za rangi za sehemu tofauti za ulimwengu na mipaka yao mpya, iliyobadilishwa na Vita vya Pili vya Ulimwengu, na picha nyeusi na nyeupe za miji. Atlas hiyo ilichapishwa na serikali ya Kifashisti ya Italia kwa ajili ya mikoa iliyounganishwa baada ya 1941. Atlas hiyo ilibadilishwa ili ifanane na lugha na jiografia ya Kislovenia. Mji wa Ljubljana (Kislovenia: Provincia di Ljubljana) ni jimbo la Slovenia lililokuwa chini ya utawala wa mafashisti kuanzia mwaka 1941 hadi mwaka 1943. Baada ya hapo ilichukuliwa na Ujerumani. Luigi Vistiglino (1892-1958) alikuwa mchoraji ramani wa Italia, aliyezaliwa Friuli, mkoa wenye idadi ya watu wa Italia na Slovenia. Baada ya Vita Kuu ya Kwanza ya Dunia, alimaliza masomo yake kama mchoraji ramani huko Torino na akaajiriwa na Instituto Geografico di Agostini huko Novara, taasisi ya uchoraji ramani, inayohusika na orodha pana ya ramani na atlas, iliyopewa na serikali ya Kifashisti. Kwa mfano, kuna maktaba tano tu nchini Slovenia ambazo zina maktaba za kitaifa. Maelezo ya OCCL 781229356
