1930s Japanese propaganda map of East Asia and the Pacific, published 1934/35, detailing the Japanese Pacific strategy showing troop numbers, aircraft numbers, American convoy and patrol routes, with insets of Manchuria, Hawaii pre-Pearl Harbour, San Fransisco, Vladivostock, and the Panama Canal, 79x108cm.Condition report:It is in a fairly modern frame - we've not taken it out to inspect but there are evident issues. Previously folded into 16ths. All over heavy foxing and spot discolouration. Evident losses to the paper particularly on the crease lines with obvious losses to the centre, patches of tears and losses to the Pacific below the Californian coast, losses below mainland Japan, losses along the crease line just above the insets, and smaller spot losses elsewhere. Some wear and losses to the margins. It has been backed against what looks to be a blue card which is a close colour match to the ocean, so where there are losses you see a similar blue through the holes.
