About this record
- Content
Sketch map of the border between Persia [Iran], Baluchistan [in present-day Pakistan] and Afghanistan. The border is drawn as a solid black line. Annotations along the border are drawn in red ink. The boundary of the Khanate of Kalat is marked as a dashed black line. A note in the bottom right corner of the map reads: ‘In spite of the number of maps in this file there does not seem to be a small map of the whole frontier, hence this effort’. Initials below the note, which is dated ‘21/10’, are unclear.
