Dealer Notes
A rare military map, covering the Strait of Hormuz - the tip of the Persian Gulf. The map uses a 7-colour tint scale to distinguish altitude and a glossary highlight the towns of significance and other standout features. These brief guides provided steady references for army personnel to aid navigation amongst the shifting sands of the region.
