Item description from seller

Colour paper folding map with 3 insets 101 x 75cm, with the original illustrated paper title band. Map neatly folded, very good with some small holes.Title band very good, foxed. Rare - 5 copies of this edition traced on Worldcat and Jisc (BL, University of Amsterdam, Leiden University, Library of Congress, Western Illinois University); and 1 of the revised edition (BL). This is undated, but contemporary with the Suez Crisis of 1956 and Cyprus Emergency. The main map, 1:7,100,000 or 112 miles to 1 inch, features oil pipelines and oilfields, roads, rail, canals, tracks, and steamer routes. The insets are the Nile Delta and Israel (centred on the Suez Canal); Cyprus (where the British had a major base, but whose forces were engaged in the Cyprus Emergency); and a wider map showing sea routes and distances via Suez and the Cape around Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia, implicitly referring to the disruption to trade and shipping.
