Original Items: Only One Available. This is a nice British-Made Allied forces silk “escape map”, from WWII, intended to aid pilots should they be downed in specific areas. This map is of SCANDINAVIA AND THE BALTIC, and is in 1:3,000,000 scale. The two sides of the map are continuous, so one picks up where the first leaves off. At first we thought it was an incomplete printing, but this is definitely not so. It measures 22.5″ x 18.5″ and is in great condition.
There is a NORTH SEA CONNECTIONS inset in the upper left corner, and there are also international boundaries from 1939 and 1940, as well as the partition of Poland in 1939.
A very nice escape map from WWII, ready to display!
