(ca. 25 x 30 cm, ausgeklappt ca. 94 x 121 cm). 1 auffaltbare Landkarte. Original-Karte, mehrfarbig, zum Auffalten im Großformat. Karte etwas berieben und randrissig, an den Faltlinien leicht rissig, sonst gut erhalten. Insgesamt guter Zustand. Landkarte im Großformat (ca. 94 x 121 cm) vom Berliner Verlag Stritzke & Rothe (Berlin C 25, Münzstraße 19). Die Karte ist vermutlich am Ende der Vorkriegszeit veröffentlicht worden. So wird das Saarland bereits als Teil des Deutschen Reichs verzeichnet (ab 1935), dagegen liegen die Sudetengebiete oder Österreich noch außerhalb der Reichsgrenzen. Wesentlich für die großformatige Karte ist die Verzeichnung der neugebauten Autobahnen, diese sind deutlich mit roter Farbe und Kilometerangaben verzeichnet. Die vielen Autobahnabschnitte lassen auf die Jahre 1937/1938 schließen, da die im Nationalsozialismus fertiggestellten Autobahnen von Ende 1936 (ca. 1000 km) bis Ende 1938 (ca. 3000 km) ganz beträchtlich angewachsen sind. Die Karte war schon mit der Annektierung der Sudetengebiete (1938) überholt, mit Kriegsbeginn war sie völlig obsolet. Äußerst seltene Karte der späten Zwischenkriegszeit, vermutlich aufgrund der begrenzten Gültigkeit der Karte!
