Item description from seller

Colour printed paper map 85x85cm. Very good, neatly folded with some creasing and marks. This was originally compiled in 1951, revised for major communications and place names in 1956, and printed by AMS dated 9-64. 1:2,500,000. The main features are land transport links, with numerous grades of principal or other roads (hard surface, loose surface (all or dry weather), track, trail, tunnel, pass) and rail (various gauges), and water features. The map also highlights the widespread territorial uncertainties at this time. The Iran-Pakistan boundary is labelled "Undemarcated". Also undemarcated is a stretch of the Iran-USSR border at Gasan-Kuli. A note states that "The boundaries of Qatar, the Trucial Principalities, and Muscat and Oman have not been defined and therefore have not been shown on this map". However, all 7 of the Emirates are labelled, along with other key locations on the Arabian side of the Gulf, strategic features including oil pipelines and the Saudi Govt Railroad, and undemarcated boundaries for the Neutral Zones and Iraq-Kuwait. The attribution of Gwadar here to Muscat and Oman became outdated in 1958. This comes with an English-Farsi glossary, and inset index map of Iran's internal boundaries.…
