Strait of Dover

1943

  • Silk-Flyers "Escape" Map
  • Strait of Dover

    While titled for the narrow channel that separates England and then occupied France, this map extends well past the channel shores, into the heart of each land. At the top of the sheet it stipulates that is is for "War and Navy" only and "Not For Sale of Distribution", it details a wealth, but notes "Areas Dangerous to Flying Are Not Indicated on This Sheet". Showing roads, terrain, and many different kinds of landmarks, it shows the focus on the goal of a liberated France.

    Condition is good with some soiling. Image size is approximately 26 x 37
