Description from the seller

“New Railway Route Map – 1939 (Showa 14)”
Japan – Korea – Manchuria
Pre-war Wide-Area Railway Map

A rare and highly detailed pre-war railway map
covering the entire railway networks of Japan, Korea, and Manchuria
at the height of their development in 1939.

Highlights:

Complete railway systems of Japan (national & private lines)

Korean Peninsula railway network under Japanese administration

Manchukuo railways including Hsinking, Harbin, Mukden, Dalian

Major shipping routes connecting Japan and the continent

Clear multicolor printing and detailed station connections

This map captures the transportation geography of East Asia

Such wide-area railway maps are increasingly scarce,
especially well-preserved examples,
and are highly valued by collectors of transportation history,
Asian geopolitics, and pre-war cartography.
