About this Item

This boldly colored map of Europe was published in Chicago by Rand McNally in 1939, shortly after the German invasion of Poland and subsequent declaration of war by France and Britain. Political borders are shaded with vibrant hues and, notably, the territory of the Third Reich includes Austria and the Czech Republic. Also of interest are the former borders of obsolete states like Austria-Hungary shown in red - perhaps a reflection on potential war aims? Last, but not least, an outline of the state of Missouri is provided in the upper left to allow the (largely American) audience to have a better comprehension of the distances involved across the theater. Sheet Width (in) 26.4 Sheet Height (in) 19.4 Condition Description "Creased and lightly worn along former fold lines. About 3" of separation has been repaired on the verso with archival tape and there's a few scattered stains in the lower left.". Seller Inventory # 3778
