Hi, Bernard hope you are keeping well, the map came from a publication called the services guide to cairo published in 1943. an earlier online version can be found: click here.
good day remedesertrat.oct 29th.2013.10:47am.thank you for your reply.re:the map.the link is very informative.the thing that stood out to me.was a census in 1937.there were 1.3 million people in cairo..that was in your link.now there over 20 million in the daytime..when the wife and I were there they told us that 3to4 million come into the city to work,they do everything and anything.keeping the city clean.interesting post.stay well regards bernard85
