Prague Old Town Square - Gamon A year before the death of Vojtěch Kubašta in 1992, his copyrights came under the management of his family, including his grandson Roman Kubašta (R. Kubašta in the text on the envelope). At the time, they collaborated with the early private Czech publisher/printer GPS. The envelope bears the country designation Czechoslovakia (Czechoslovakia). This country did not officially split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia until January 1, 1993. Shortly after the first editions, Roman Kubašta founded his own specialized publishing house under the name Gamon (or Gamon Studio), located at the exact same address on Vltavská Street in Prague. In later reprints (from 1993/1994), the name GPS was replaced by Gamon. Moreover, the country name on the envelope of these reprints was changed to Czech Republic, which proves that this version was printed after the division of the country. The books and maps are in good condition, with some discoloration here and there consistent with their age.
