Description:
|
|
Unusual, separately issued folding map of Malta prepared by the newly formed unit of Royal Engineers also known as the Malta Fortress Squadron.
Befitting its surveyors, the map very much concentrates on the infrastructure of the island, including the state of the roads, position of telephone wires, civil telephone points among other features, all listed in a key on the upper right. Printed colour. Folded. |
