Description

This decorative Art Deco map of Warsaw shows the postal, telegraph and telephone communications in Warsaw in 1936.

The map was published as an appendix to a brochure with a street index with a title Spis ulic, placów, dworców kolejowych, ogrodów i parków oraz miejscowości poza granicami miasta z oznaczeniem przynależności do dzielnic pocztowych m. st. Warszawy.

This is the first and only edition of this postal map of Warsaw. The map is very rare, since it was used for a very short time before the start of WWII in 1939. We could only trace two examples of the brochure with a map in libraries worldwide (both in Warsaw: Biblioteka Główna Województwa Mazowieckiego and Biblioteki Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego) and no examples of the map nor the brochure outside Poland.
