Japanese World War II map of Malay and Singapore.

This is a scarce 1943 World War II era Japanese map of the Malaya Peninsula (Malaysia) and Singapore Island. It covers the peninsula in considerable detail noting both physical and political elements with inset city plan in the lower left quadrant. It offers superb detail regarding both topographical and political elements. Notes cities, roads, trade routes on air, sea and land, and uses shading to display oceanic depths. While Allied World War II maps of this region are fairly common it is extremely rare to come across their Japanese counterparts. All text is in Japanese. This map was created as part of the Series of Great East Asia maps prepared by the Japanese during World War II. This map is no. 9 in that series.
