This appears to be on the same scale as RCIN 729127, but the delineation of the river is slightly different, and does not incorporate the ink amendments made to RCIN 729127. The copying squares are almost twice the size of those on RCIN 729127; the measurement, 3.1 cm and 6.2 cm, is odd: the first is slightly short of 1¼ inches, while the second is 2 7/16 inches.
Condition: four fold lines; trimmed down from original size. Verso: surface dirt.
