This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I looked up the coordinates and it's south of Neubrandonburg, Germany. The words on the map seems to be Polish? What a journey it must've had for a Polish map on Germany ended up as a German envelope.

i think its a military map. in the lower right you can see words on German, English and something eastern.

I had some note pad by the same brand, and its quite nice paper, not the usual printer paper, but smoother. if feels high quality. always wondered what's the name for this paper. maybe i should search for this note pad...

I believe you are correct about it being a military map. The visible Polish(?) text is part of the map legend given in German and English.

Yup, Polish. But this is pretty much what generic maps look like in the Czech Republic so probably not a military map.

Edit: It was not hard to find the specific publication. See my other comment.
