A third key denotes the different colored regions on the map to show forests, cemeteries, nature reserves, parks, and canals, also in the four languages. There is no Russian on the map, and factories, government buildings, airports, and other sites are only depicted in West Berlin, none are shown in East Berlin. In the top left corner is a depiction of the coat of arms of West Berlin, a black bear on a white shield underneath a golden crown. The map is included inside a pamphlet and takes up an entire side unfolded. Small repair to lower margin, otherwise hardly used. The other side includes statistics on the transportation, purchasing, and supplying of goods in West Berlin, as well as traffic, federal aid, and federal subsidy information. There is an additional depiction of the Brandenburg Gate as seen from West Berlin, and a small map of Germany split into East and West Germany. Beautifully designed map.<br/> <br/>
