Side 1: Kun-ming, Yunnan, China to Chabua, Assam, India (Eastern portion) Side 2: Kun-ming, Yunnan, China to Chabua, Assam, India (Western portion) Map No. 133 was printed at the request of mis-x China and it covered the area from Kunming, China to Chabua, India, and was intended to meet the requirements of pilots flying over the Hump in the China-Burma-India (cbi) theater. It was designated No. 133 because it was based on an existing paper strip map known as Flight Chart No. 133, which had previously been prepared by the u.s. Coast and Geodetic Survey. Preparation of the base map cost approximately $200 in 1944, not including printing costs. The aaf Aeronautical Chart Service determined which portions of Flight Chart No. 133 were to appear on the cloth map. The us Coast and Geodetic Survey then prepared the base map for the cloth map at the request of the Army Map Service. The map possesses a scale of 1:1,000,000 in the Lambert conformal conic projection. The map contains elevation tints and thus is mostly of a brownish tint due to the high elevations along the Hump, with elevations exceeding 23,000 feet. At the request of mis-x, the map also included a blood chit. This is the only cloth map that had a blood chit printed on it. The blood chit contains the following message in Bengali, Hindustani (Urda), Kachin, Lisu, Burmese, and Chinese: I am an american airman. my plane is destroyed. i cannot speak your language. i am an enemy of the japanese. please give me food and take me to the nearest allied military post. you will be rewarded.
