Description
This charming pictorial map of Penang (an island in Malaysia) reflects the peacetime tranquility of the postwar years. Vignettes highlight local architecture, transportation options, leisure activities, and agricultural production. The verso presents a street plan of Georgetown, the island’s largest city. Several areas, including 10 hotels, are marked as off-limits, likely reflecting the map’s use by British troops stationed there.
