Folding black and white bird's-eye view map, 39 x 55cm, a little worming. Good copy.

This map of the Russo-Japanese War was published on 7 June 1904 by Tokyo Nichinichi Shinbun. The map, featuring geographical elements, is notably distorted to include Japan, Korea, China, and distant Russia. Place names are visible in various locations and Japan appears disproportionately large in comparison with other regions. Around the time of publication, the seizure of Port Arthur was underway, depicted with numerous warships positioned outside the port. Distances from Port Arthur to other major cities, as well as sea distances from Nagasaki to various locations, are listed at the lower edge of the map.
