Map of the Shooting Districts lying between Hangchow - Nanking - Wuhu and Shanghai...

A Large and Very Detailed Map of the Shanghai Region.

This expansive and detailed map of Shanghai and its surroundings was created with a unique purpose - assisting a gentleman in finding optimal areas for game shooting. The map showcases game areas, roads, distinctive trees, and villages, along with prominent landmarks. Beyond traditional geographical labels, the map is adorned with phrases like "used by junks in summer", "used all the year round by river steamers" or "first-rate shooting country".

Covering a vast region from modern-day Tongling to Shanghai in the west to east direction, and from Nanjing to Hangzhou in the north to south direction, the map is labeled in both English and Chinese. It features major districts and provinces, marked railway lines (existing, under construction, or planned), cities, towns, villages, swamps, pagodas, hills, boundary provinces, creeks, canals and distinctive trees. Additionally, there's a note about the famous Hangzhou Bore, and a tide table for Shanghai is situated in the upper right corner.

Multicolored printed lithographic folding map, mounted on linen. In the original blue cloth binding with gilt lettering on the upper cover.
