Description
The Communist Fastness'. The creator of this 1950 map, Richard Edes Harrison, said of it "World War II is over but now we have the cold war and it cannot be ignored. This is a handy view to demonstrate the relations of Europe and Northern Asia to North America and the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Approximately three-quarters of the land area in this view is U.S.S.R. territory. The purpose here is to show in perspective the Russian relations to the rest of Europe, Asia and, most important, to North America, the Atlantic, Arctic, and Pacific Oceans." by Harrison, Richard Edes. Published February 1950. Vintage colour map. Size 33 x 49 cm | 13.0 x 19.0 inches. Condition: Good; suitable for framing. Please check the scan for any blemishes prior to making your purchase. This is a folding map. There is another map printed on the reverse side. Tags: 1950, Asia, Fortune Magazine, Harrison Richard Edes, Map, Military maps
