A very detailed townplan of Vienna together with a Bird's Eye View of Vienna with surrounding area on verso, published for the use by USFA personnel (United States Forces Austria). The townplan is surrounded by images of famous sites with a short description and opening times; the surround map on verso shows a legend with information to clubs, theatres, concert halls, ice cream palours and libraries. The USFA published its own magazine for U.S. soldiers the "USFA Special Services Info". This magazine, appearing bi-weekly, not only informed soldiers about local sites but also reported on cultural events (such as movie shows, theater peformances and concerts), gave information about leisure activities and travel opportunities. It seems that this map was separately published or a supplement to the magazine.
