Separately issued vintage road map of Saudi Arabia in English and Arabic.

Cartographically, this map was based on a series of aerial surveys made by Fairey Surveys in the early 1970s in the early stages of Saudi infrastructure planning. However, the development of the roads suggests that this map was made shortly after Fairey Surveys changed its name to Clyde Surveys after 1977. The map still retains the name of the earlier company on the lower right. 

The map was published in both English and Arabic and also bears small vintage photographs of the Kaaba in Mecca and the Prophet's Mosque in Medinah. 

The reverse shows several smaller plans of Saudi cities including Jeddah, Mecca and Riyadh.
