A surveyors' drawing for the P.M.R. – Palestine Military Railways. [ca. 1918].
Drawing of the southern entrance to the city of Haifa and a chart detailing the land owners and the damages caused to their land while completing the construction of the railway – an accurate record of the number of water wells and the expropriated buildings (including the designation of each building), the uprooted trees (hundreds of orange trees, figs, pomegranates, olives and palm trees). 196X32 cm. Several cloth sheets glued together. Good condition. Stains, minor tears (some glued), damages mainly to edges and to connections between the cloth sheets.
