- Notes:
-
- Map of Albania in Dec. 1940. Relief shown by contours and spot heights.
- Albania, occupied by Italian forces in April 1939, became the springboard for an Italian invasion of Greece in October 1940. Local interest in Hong Kong was catered for by the publication of this map, on which place names are printed in English and Chinese.
- This bi-lingual map may have been produced principally for members of the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps, composed of English, Chinese and Portuguese members, to inform them about this theatre of war. It is unclear whether it is an official map, as it does not bear any imprint from military authorities.
