RAF tissue paper escape map - Europe.
Approx. 46 x 46cm. Scale 1 : 2,000,000. Sheet A Europe - Denmark to Yugoslavia. Created by Clayton Hutton of MI9 using wood pulp from a Mulberry tree, these maps were incredibly thin and light. As a result these maps were strong, silent to use and could be concealed in much smaller spaces than the equivalent silk map. They were incredibly resilient and could be screwed up or soaked in water and still retain their utility. Contained with the original storage sheet which displays an imprint of their three colour print and in excellent condition with minor creases.
