Item description from seller

Sheet 54x74cm, colour printed to both sides, folding down into title panel with chronology to the back 19x27cm. Good, neatly folded, tanned to the top edges of the outer panels, with long closed fold tear, and several very small patches of light scuffing to the outer panels (not impacting the main map images). Undated c1969 with the chronology up to 9 Sep 1969 (another copy seen has a chronology up to 28 Dec 1968, with that latter entry omitted here). One side is covered fully with a map titled "The Crisis Area". This is centred on the Sinai Peninsula ("Occupied by Israel") and bounded by Beirut and Damascus (NE), El Muwaili on the Saudi coast (SE), and UAR Egypt east of the Nile (SW) on a scale of 1 inch to 16 miles. This includes an extensive index broken down by territory, with settlements, international boundaries, the Armistice Line 1949, Cease Fire Line 1967, rail, roads, canals, water conduits, oil pipelines, sand dune, salt marsh, wells, ruins, and spot heights. Half of the verso is taken up with a Middle East map approx 1 inch to 180 miles. The rest features maps showing topography, and agriculture, industry and resources, flags, and a chronology of events leading up to the Crisis to the back panel. The latter begins in 1882: "First group of Jewish colonists settle in Palestine", and covers up to 9 Sep 1969: "Israeli armored force crosses Gulf of Suez and attacks Egyptian coastal positions". This appears to be rare.…
