Colour folding map of Oceania, Southeast Asia and islands of the North Pacific Ocean. Relief shown by spot heights and gradient tints, 61 x 85.2cm, folds to 21 x 16cm. Map is overall in very good condition: there are tiny separations at a couple of folding points, light wear at the lower centre fold, soiling in the right hand margin of the top panel (well outside the map image), some light creasing. Complete with the original paper wrapper (a little soiled.)

An independently issued map, published on 15 November 1941, just weeks before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The map covers the southern part of China, Southeast Asia and the Philippines, all of Australia and the greater part of New Zealand with markings of natural resources in red. There is an inset map of the Pacific Region.
