German trench map
A recent find on eBay Germany... a rather battered example of: 'Paasche's Spezialkarten der Westfront.' Drawn on the back is a trench map of part of the German sector at: 'Chemin des Dames.' That is probably worth more than what I paid for the map itself! Click on pictures to enlarge.
Cheers,
Steve.
pretty neat pickup! The hand drawn map is fantastic
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Love It Steve! Thank you for sharing!

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
Update on the trench map... After trawling through maps of the 'Chemin des Dames', I've managed to identify the location as the fortified village of 'Cerny-en-Laonnois'. I've also mounted and framed the map, and all I need now is an empty space to hang it!
Cheers,
Steve.
Apologies for last picture... I tried to delete -but can't.
