1940 Japanese Map of Japan, Korea and Taiwan


A scarce and attractive 1940's geological map of Japan, including the annexed territories of Korea (Corea) and Taiwan. Issued by the Japan Mineral Geology Association, this map offers beautiful detail of the entire region with eight insets detailing Korea, Taiwan, and various island groups. 

It includes Sakhalin Island, which at the time was administered by Japan as the Karafuto Prefecture.
