Pictorial map of the 36th Infantry Division's campaigns in Italy - ca. 1940

This pictorial map depicts the campaigns of the 36th US Infantry Division in Italy during World War II. It features a section of the Italian coastline with a red zigzag line indicating the progress of the fighting. The style is highly illustrated, with drawings of battles, soldiers, and explosions to mark key operational locations. Important cities such as Paestum, Salerno, Naples, Anzio, Rome, Grosseto, and Piombino are clearly marked. The map highlights crucial dates such as "SEPT 9, 1943 FIRST INVASION OF EUROPE" near Salerno and "MAY 18, 1944" at Anzio, as well as the capture of Rome, "FIRST AXIS CAPITAL CAPTURED." The vivid colors and cartoonish style contribute to the narrative and commemorative aspect of this historical piece. The division insignia is visible in the lower left corner, with the title "Campaigns of the 36th Infantry Division World War II." The map measures 41 cm by 68 cm.
