Large colour folding map, 165 x 215.8cm. Some strengthening of folds and neat repairs on reverse, small chip in margin, a little light browning on some folds but overall very good.

This extra-large world map presents a detailed depiction of global wartime activity during the latter half of 1942. Japanese military campaigns and land and sea battles that occurred between 10 April and the end of September are marked in red, with all naval engagements included. The map highlights the growing intensity of conflict in Southeast Asia and the Pacific, areas that appear to have reached the height of military activity at the time of publication. In Europe, regions under German and Italian control are indicated with blue diagonal lines. A comprehensive legend identifies military, air, and submarine bases belonging to Germany, Italy, and the Allied nations, as well as territories occupied or bombed by Japanese forces.
