- Notes:
-
- A set of military maps produced for soldiers of the U.S. Armed Forces . On verso Target Berlin is a graphic representation of a photographic view of the earth focussed in the centre of the sphere on Berlin, Germany, and so scale and distance varies on this map. A detachable scale is supplied at the bottom of the verso, and by which distances can be measured along any line running through Berlin and also as long as it is positioned on Berlin the varying scale can be estimated.
- "Prepared from public sources of information."
- Map making is attributed to F.E. Manning, one of the distinguished news illustrators of the war.
- Headers in text entitled War fronts: Russia, Italy, Schweinfurt, Southwest Pacific, Burma, North Pacific, U.S. subs.
