About this Item

Map 36 x 26" printed both sides that folds to 6 x 9". One side is a 4-color map of Japan with an inset map of Hokkaido, an inset Mileage Chart (from Tokyo via National Highways and Prefectural Roads), and an inset explanatory Legend. This side also shows cities and towns according to population, Main Routes and 2nd Class Roads, Railroads (both electric and non-electric), Hot Springs/Resorts, Mountains, District Boundaries, beaches, rivers, islands, and bodies of water. The other side is an exhaustive list of populations centers in both Japanese and English. The cover panel states the following: Prepared by the Cartographic Division of King Associates. Just touches of wear around the edges, the corners have what appear to be tack holes in them, a few separations at the folds which are just barely beginning, outer panels ever so lightly soiled, someone's driving route very carefully traced in red crayon, else very good to near fine with no other markings. This is a relatively rare piece of Japan cartography. Seller Inventory # 008675
