Description

A finely-executed manuscript map of Corfu, orientated with north to the upper left, on a scale of appoximately 1:85,000. Written in an Italian hand, the only clue to the island's status as a British protectorate is the scale given in English miles. On the map relief is illustrated with shading; roads, including the street layout of Corfu City are marked in red, as are a few buildings.

Condition:

Remargined at bottom.
