Rare map of Hyderabad in Telugu.

A wonderful discovery, this is a rare 1954 pocket map of Hyderabad, India, in Telugu, a South Indian Dravidian language. The map details the city of Hyderabad with important tourist attractions drawn in profile. The map was drawn by Baha ud-din Mahmud 'Salim' Siddiqi (the 'Salim' seems to be nom de plume). It was commissioned by Idarah-e Intizami, and published in Hyderabad by the Rafiq Machine Press Fine Art Lithographer. It appears to have been a tourist map that was published in at least one other language, Urdu. This map is very rare with only on other example, in Urdu, known.
