    Description

    An original 1965 U.S. Army Map Service, 3D raised relief, Topographical Map titled HANOI.
    Prepared by the Army Map Service, Corps of Engineers, U.S. Army, Washington, D.C.
    Reprinted and molded in 1965 from World (Asia), 1:1,000,000, Series 1301, Edition 6-AMS, Sheet NF 48, 1954.
    This map is a thin plastic material.
    Size: LARGE about 20 1/2" x 30 3/4"
    Authentic - This was owned by Major General John F. Freund. Then Brigadier General Freund held a number of positions while serving in Vietnam,
    including Special Assistant to the COMUSMACV General William Westmoreland and commander of the 199th Light Infantry Brigade.
    Some information about General Freund is available on wikipedia.
    Condition is used. Edges show wear and soiling.  Map shows soiling on front and back. (The back is very soiled. I did not try to clean.)
    Assume plastic is brittle. See photos.
    *** NOTE: this map can not be rolled and shipped in a tube - it is a thin plastic material that, I assume, is likely brittle from age.
    Therefore, it must be shipped flat in a very large box.***
