This is a neat - very interesting and actually scarcely found! - specific WH (Luftwaffe) linnen-based, navigation flight-map (ie. 'Luft-Navigationskarte in Merkatorprojektion') being a '1941'-dated example (numbered: 'L-Karte Nr. 1') and depicting the United Kingdom, Ireland, Northern France, Belgium and the Netherlands and that comes in a wonderful- (and never folded!), condition. The map which was printed (on 'plastified' linnen!) by the: 'Berliner Lithographisches Institut' comes in the size: 'Massstab auf 51 Grad - Breite 1.200.000' measures: 75 x 55 cms. and shows a red-toned ink-stamp that reads: 'Nur für den Dienstgebrauch' (as can be noticed on the pictures). These neat navigation flight-maps (ie. 'Luft-Navigationskarten in Merkatorprojektion') were carried on-board on most LW-planes and were a much needed item. The piece was as stated never folded and will be shipped in a carton tube. I have seen similar examples seen being sold for much more than my asking-price!
