This pictorial map was created by General Drafting Co. and was published in numerous editions in different languages around the 1950s, possibly to counteract propaganda created by the Soviet Union during the Cold War era. This German-language edition is packed with information and features hundreds of drawings in full color including points of interest, natural resources, and agricultural products. At bottom are inset maps showing railroad lines, air routes, and highways. At top is a double-hemisphere map of the world showing the location of the United States. Published by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C.
