This variant works as you expect:

(defun image-wipe-and-insert-two-maps ()
  (interactive)
  (let ()
    (with-current-buffer (get-buffer-create "*an image area test buffer*")
      (switch-to-buffer (current-buffer))
      (erase-buffer)
      (insert-image (find-image '((:type png :file "/usr/share/emacs/24.4/etc/images/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/emacs.png"
					 :map (list
						((rect . ((0 . 0) . (50 . 50))) anAreaID (pointer hourglass help-echo "You found an area!"))
						((rect . ((51 . 51) . (100 . 100))) aSecondAreaID (pointer hand help-echo "You found another area!")))
					 ;; :relief -20
					 ;; :conversion laplace
					 :margin (0 . 0)
					 :pointer arrow)))))))

(Figuring out why you need that explicit call to 'list' is left as an
exercise ;-)
