Beschreibung

Chart with black, blue and red colouring 110x70cm. Good, folded and two hole-punched for filing which has partly affected the image along the central fold. First published on 25 Nov 1955, this issue contains small corrections up to 1960. Natural scale 1:100,000. This most prominently features Bubiyan and Al Warba Islands (Kuwait) and Abadan Island (Iran), with the Iraqi port of Umm Qasr labelled. Numerous features marked reflect the long-established maritime cultures, including Arab villages (on Abadan), old Turkish and other forts including ruins, mud walls, conspicuous large houses, date plantations interspersed by creeks, date gardens enclosed by low mud walls, etc. Among the usual nautical features is shown the path of the oil pipeline to a tanker berth under construction (1960) at Khor al Amaya.
