Original vintage Shell Autokarte road map of Germany, published in 1956 by Mairs Geographischer Verlag, Stuttgart.

A particularly interesting Cold War-era map showing post-war Germany and the zonal divisions between East and West. The legend includes interzonal crossing points including Helmstedt/Marienborn and references Germany's 1937 international boundaries.

Scale 1:500,000.

The map folds into its original colourful Shell Reise-Dienst cover.

Condition: Vintage used condition with age-related wear, creasing and rubbing to the cover, fold lines and some discolouration/staining. Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.

A great piece of 1950s motoring, Shell and Cold War ephemera.
