Historic Map : Victoria Map of San Diego, California and San Blas, Mexico, 1825, Vintage Wall ArtThis is an exceptionally rare and early map of San Diego Bay, California, and San Blas, Mexico, published in 1825 by order of Senor Don Guadalupe Victoria, the first president of the Republic of Mexico. Essentially two maps on a single sheet, this map highlights the starting point (San Blas) an ending point (San Diego) of the Spanish supply route to southern California. The upper map focuses on San Diego Bay, covering the region from Puerto Falso

This is an exceptionally rare and early map of San Diego Bay, California, and San Blas, Mexico, published in 1825 by order of Senor Don Guadalupe Victoria, the first president of the Republic of Mexico. Essentially two maps on a single sheet, this map highlights the starting point (San Blas) an ending point (San Diego) of the Spanish supply route to southern California. The upper map focuses on San Diego Bay, covering the region from Puerto Falso (Mission Harbor) to Punta de Arena. The fortress of San Diego (the Presidio), the Ranchera de Choyas, the Poblacion of San Diego (Mission of San Diego), and a ranch and Indian village in the southwestern part of the bay, among other sites, are all noted. The lower map, focusing on San Blas details the Bay from the Rio de Santiago to the village of San Blas, today a small fishing village near Puerto Vallarta. Both maps offer numerous depth soundings, references to shoals, reefs, and other undersea dangers, and notes on anchorage. Pantoja was the navigator and cartographer of the Frigate Princesa, which was commissioned, in 1782 to supply Spain's few colonial outposts along the remote California coastline. The Los Angeles Bookseller Jake Zeitlin claimed that this map was published in London by John Arrowsmith. While Arrowsmith's name does not appear on the work, the quality of the paper and the exceptionally fine engraving is definitely suggestive of a well-established European publishing house. No similar work of this quality is evident from either Mexican or American publishers of the period. This map is extremely scarce and we know of only four other examples in institutional collections: the Bancroft Library, The Huntington Library, the University of Arizona, and the U.C. San Diego Campus Library.

Es una buen cargador inalámbrico, pero su mal ensamblaje hizo que no funcionara al inicio.
Color: Best Dad-brown, Color: Best Dad-brown
Estaba bastante emocionado de tener éste cargador inalámbrico para mi celular. Me gustó mucho el diseño de la bandeja hecho en piel. (según la descripción) Lamentablemente, no funcionó con mi celular, tengo un iPhone 12 pro max, que funciona perfectamente si lo cargo con cualquier otro cargador inalámbrico, pero con éste cargador no funcionó, simplemente se quedaba la luz led en color azul parpadeando. Y según las instrucciones es porque no está bien acomodado en la bandeja ó que está protegiéndose de un sobre-calentamiento, pero nada que ver con ello, ya que lo estuve probando acomodándolo de distintas maneras y comparándolo al mismo tiempo con otro cargador donde sí funcionaba mi celular sin problemas. Cabe mencionar que las pruebas fueron hechas sin tener ningún estuche protector en el celular que pudiese interferir con la conexión inalámbrica del cargador. Simplemente éste cargador no estaba funcionando. Quedé desilusionado, ya que ére era el propósito de tener éste cargador, ya que usar sólo la bandeja, el precio por éste producto sería exageradamente alto. Bandeja y cargador es una buena idea, pero la bandeja sin un cargador que no funcione, no tiene caso. En el último momento decidí abrir (soy técnico en electrónica) para revisar porque no estaba funcionando, y descubrí que la bobina que funge como imán, estaba despegada de donde debería estar posicionada por causa de un mal ensamblaje. Así que simplemente la coloqué en el lugar que debería de ir añadiendo un poco de pegamento para reforzar que no se vuelva a despegar. Hice prueba nuevamente, y el celular ésta vez fue detectado sin problemas y cargando. En conclusión, la idea de ésta bandeja con el cargador es muy buena, el producto es muy bueno en cuanto a la calidad de la piel, lamentablemente un mal ensamblaje termina haciendo que demerite la calidad del producto. Iba a dar 2 estrellas, sin embargo, al encontrar la falla, subo a 3 estrellas, ya que el producto en si es bueno, pero el mal ensamble, como mencioné, le resta mucho, ya que podría haber llevado a que éste producto ya fuera inútil.

Beautiful
Color: Best Dad-brown
I got this for my husband for Father’s Day and I know he’s going to love it! It’s very simple with a beautiful colored leather, great stitch/leather quality, a hearty quote with a cute design, and perfect size for what is usually kept at the bedside.

Good looking and the wireless charging works great
Color: Best Dad-brown
I have a confession to make, I(a dad) bought this for myself. I was looking for something to keep on the night stand next tot he bed without getting to big. I only wanted something to charge my phone and put the tv remotes in, I have no interest in keeping my keys, watch or spare change in reach of our younger children....most of the other options I found were much bigger for all those purposes. This one is well made, looks great, and the wireless charger is very easy with my iphone, even while in its case. I dont even need to center it in the charging pad, which was my only fear. I can lay my phone anywhere in there and it charges flawlessly. If you are looking for a gift for your dad, I would not hesitate.

Charger works great, tray is solid
Color: Best Dad-brown, Color: Best Dad-brown
I've only used wireless chargers in passing before, and always had issues with them consistently 'activating.' I've had no issues with this one at all, the tray makes it very easy to line it up. Slide the phone all the way into the groove and it's charged flawlessly for me. My phone does have a case, though it's not a very thick one like an otterbox, which I imagine would make the charging more inconsistent. The tray as a whole is very solidly built and well made, it is listed as 'vegan leather' so I'm assuming it's not actual leather, but you honestly can't tell the difference. My biggest complaint is how cheesy the saying on the tray is (even though I am a dad), but that is well worth putting up with for how nice the tray is.

Not bad, but charger didn't work with my phone
Color: Best Dad-brown
I have several organizing trays on my desk (basic, nothing as nice as this box), and so I thought to reduce the clutter on my desk further by incorporating my QI charger with an organizer tray. Unfortunately the QI charger in the organizer wouldn't link up to the QI charging coils of my phone. Whereas the organizer's charger did work with my wife's S24 Ultra, and my phone has been working on a separate QI charger. The whole point in spending this much money on this organizer is for the QI charger. Without the charger working it's just too expensive as an organizer. Yes, it has a leather look to it, but even with that finish I'd say $25 max would be all I'd be willing to pay for such an organizer. So this a cautionary point. If you give this as a gift it may not work with the recipients phone.
