"Map of the City of Delhi (Shahjahanabad), in which the Mussulmans' and the Hindus' ancient buildings have been shown; scale 12 inches per mile; copied from the map published by the Survey of India in 1873," from Bashir ud-Din Ahmad Dihlavi, Vaqi'at ul-hukumat-e Dehli (Agra: Shams Machine Press, 1919 [A.H.1338]), vol. 2 [of 3]), inset between pp. 36-37 of the introduction. CLICK ON ANY SECTION OF THE MAP FOR A VERY LARGE SCAN.

Source: scanned by FWP from the three-volume set kindly given to me by Phil Oldenburg many years ago. This much-folded map was disintegrating even while I was scanning it; so alas, I couldn't do a better job.
