DescriptionMoscow. LOC 79693328.jpg |
English: Scale 1:35,000. Shows wards. "Base: Plan g. Moskvy (Plan of the City of Moscow) 1:20,000, Second Edition, GUGK, Moscow, 1940." "12765." Includes glossary. Accompanied by index: Guide to streets and locations in Moscow. (72 p. : fold. col. map ; 22 cm.) Available also through the Library of Congress Web site as a raster image. AACR2 Comment: The map is an anachronistic assortment of the underlying 1940 map with the addition of some (but not all) areas developed after world war II like the new Moscow University campus on Sparrow Hills. Other areas developed prior to 1957 are shown in their 1940 or even earlier state (e.g. Komsomolsky Prospect and the beginning of Kutuzovsky Prospect, here nonexistent). Some areas were deliberately obfuscated (as in the Soviet sources), e.g. the Fili aircraft plant and airfield are shown as green forest |

The area shown here as green forest, in reality, housed a large aircraft plant and an airfield, both laid down back in the 1920s. Here, it is obfuscated just as it was in the Soviet sources.
