Historical Maps
The American, Eastern Air Command, produced tricolour square format, 35 x 35 cm, Approach and Target Charts. The latter covered about 8 miles square, included a one-minute graticule, showed range circles at 3,000 feet intervals and magnetic bearings to the target at ten-degree intervals. The Approach Charts were produced at smaller scale. American Charts were usually double-sided with Approach and Target Charts on one sheet. Alternatively, photo-mosaics were shown on the back of each type. This reduced example was reproduced by 958 Engr. Aviation Topo Co. in September 1944.
