Detailed topographical map of Berlin published in 1962, very shortly after the construction of the Berlin wall which isolated the west part from the east until 1989, by the Presse- und Informationsamt des Landes.
The powerful map is interesting also because it is before the construction of the second wall beginning in June 1963, which established the so-called death strip.
