J. G. Bartholomew’s Coffee – Production and Consumption (1907) is a classic example of early twentieth-century thematic cartography, produced during a period when global trade statistics and economic geography were increasingly visualized through maps. Created by the renowned Scottish cartographer John George Bartholomew, the map reflects his pioneering role in transforming cartography into a tool for analyzing worldwide economic systems.

The map presents a global view of coffee production and consumption, using color coding and graphic symbols to distinguish producing regions from major consuming markets. Coffee-growing areas are concentrated in tropical zones across South America, Central America, Africa, and parts of Asia, with Brazil prominently emphasized as the dominant producer. The visual treatment highlights the dependence of coffee cultivation on climate and latitude, reinforcing contemporary geographic theories linking environment to economic output.

Equally significant is the depiction of consumption patterns, which reveal Europe and North America as the principal markets for coffee. This contrast between production in the Global South and consumption in industrialized nations underscores the asymmetrical nature of early twentieth-century global trade. Shipping routes and statistical annotations further emphasize the movement of raw commodities from colonial or semi-colonial regions to metropolitan centers.

Stylistically, the map is clear and analytical, favoring legibility and data clarity over decorative elements. It reflects Bartholomew’s modern cartographic philosophy, in which maps function as instruments of education and policy rather than mere geographic representations. Likely produced for an atlas or educational publication, the map would have served students, economists, and policymakers alike.
