Description
This uncommon postwar map of the eastern Czech Republic was drawn by Postal Assistant Josef Pachman and published in Prague in 1946 by the Ministry of Post. It shows the mail routes in operation across the historic region of Moravia-Silesia, presented almost as an enclave within the broader nation. A legend in the lower left identifies the various symbols used to denote important features of the network – postal stations (completed and proposed, with or without telegraphs), mail exchanges, seasonal offices, administrative regions, and more. Inset maps show additional details in the large urban areas – Brno, Ostrava, Opava, and Olomouc.
