This page is designed to help you Identify who printed your Cloth map
Clues to your map's origin, usually,
lie along the edges,
atop the sheet, or in the corners.
Sometimes sheets have
both a corner identifier and
a title. Sheets can be single
or double sided. US sheets are
pre-treated with a special
chemical to reduce fraying.
RAF and RAF Post War sheets
have either a hemmed
edge or a heat
sealed edge.
**Luftwaffe Oil Cloth sheets
are not included in this website.
