Map of the Chester Concession

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Caption text says "The Heavy Black Lines Show the Extent of the Concession, Consisting of a Railroad Line and Mining and Petroleum Rights for Twenty Kilometers on Each Side of the Right of Way. The Shaded Area Is The Mosul District, Claimed by the Turks, but Held by the Arabs Under a British Mandate. As Is Seen From the Map, the Concession Covers a Great Stretch of Turkey Where It Runs Into the Shaded Mosul Area. It Reaches Into the Cockpit of the Oil Struggle; the Small Insert Map Shows the Port of Yumurtatuk in Detail, Where the Chesters Have a Very Valuable Port Concession"
