Printed Ephemera — 1941
Stadtplan von London
This London street map has been adapted for German Luftwaffe pilots to use when flying bombing missions over London during the Second World War. Colour-coded bombing targets have been applied to the map in red and purple. A key down the side identifies these targets including museums (such as the London Museum), railway stations, government and royal buildings and services such as gasworks.
The map covers an area from Ealing in the west to Islington in the east, Hampstead in the north to Westminster in the south.
