Folio 35 is a map bearing the imprint 'Published by the Royal Geographical Society, 1910. Railways inserted to November, 1917' and the series designation 'G[eographical].S[ection].,G[eneral].S[taff]., No. 2901.' Portrays hydrology, roads, telegraphs, settlements, place names and international boundaries. The sheet bears the printed note 'International Boundaries as in July, 1914'. A 1921 full edition of this base map, including also relief, railways and ancient canals, is at Maps 46970.(44.) although lacks a GSGS designation, yet includes a set of accompanying notes published by the Royal Geographical Society in 1910, including details of compilation material.
A thematic overprint in several colours portrays the geographical distribution of twenty different ethnographical groups. Eight proposed boundaries have been added in manuscript. Copies of this map, without the manuscript additions, are also filed at Maps 46990.(1.) and Maps MOD GSGS 2901.
Folio 35a is an attached folio (227 x 181mm) in typescript and coloured ink that provides a key to the manuscript boundary additions on folio 35. It bears the signature block 'General Staff. War Office. 20.8.19.'
