Beschreibung

Colour map 69 x 55cm dissected into18 sections and backed on to linen, folding down with grained cloth to outer panels and title label to front 12 x 19cm. Equatorial scale 1:37,566,325. Dated 22 December 1941 from the publisher's code to lower margin which reads 221241. This was therefore prepared immediately after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour (7 Dec), which is labeled. An earlier edition showed the situation in 1938. The whole is bounded by parts of the Russian Steppe (NW) and Norway (NE), and the islands around South Georgia (SE) and Kerguelen (SW). Territorial waters are marked with red lines (British, French, Netherlands, Japan, US etc), naming mandates conferred and international conventions where relevant. Tanned and slightly crumpled perhaps due to lots of small air pockets between the paper and linen. Outer panels very good. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 3712
