This group was issued as part of Major Cities of Japan: A Graphic Survey for Civil Affairs Officers, prepared for U.S. military-government personnel during the closing period of World War II.
These are not ordinary tourist or commercial maps. They were prepared to give Civil Affairs and military-government officers detailed information aboutMoji/Shimonosekiand its infrastructure in anticipation of the administration of Japan.
The maps examine different aspects ofMoji/Shimonosekiand the surrounding area, including urban infrastructure and services.
The maps are in very nice condition for their age, particularly considering their intended working use. Please review the photographs carefully for condition and contents.
IMPORTANT: The Major Cities of Japan: A Graphic Survey for Civil Affairs Officers master portfolio shown in the photographs originally housed the larger multi-city collection. The master portfolio is shown for historical context only and is NOT included in thisMoji/Shimonosekilisting. This listing is for the complete group of 7Moji/Shimonosekimaps only.
