Ca. 1961.. Color map (double sided), 23 3/4 x 17 inches on sheet size 27 1/2 x 19 inches, folding as issued into 9 x 4 3/4 inch pictorial thin card folder. Folder lightly worn and soiled; maps in very good condition with a couple of small areas with light soiling in lower margin. A large pictorial Tourist Map in color subtitled The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan with pictographs identifying important sites. Inset is a small map of International Boundaries for countries in the region showing Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran. There is no mention of Israel; the boundaries reflect the region prior to the Six Day War, with an "Armistice Line" surrounding the Jordanian Holy Land. However, the reality of the situation is addressed on the rear of the card folder in a paragraph stating "travel between Jordan and Israel: Only a one way crossing between Jordan and Israel is permitted. Visitors coming to Jordan via Israel will be allowed entry provided there is no valid Israeli visa affixed to their passports and provided they submit a certificate of church membership...." A key at the bottom of the map provides symbols for Towns, Villages, Antiquity Sites, International Boundaries, Railways, Wadi Beds etc. On verso is a map of Jerusalem (Old City and Environs), and a black and white map of Amman. The inside cover of the folder lists Places of Interest in Jordan. The scale of the map of Jordan is 1:750,000. .
