- A color-coded evangelical world map, with a triangle at the bottom center showing the relative population of each denomination. The largest groups are "Heathens" and "Pagans." This map was printed on linen, perhaps for the convenience of those intending to take it with them on mission. For another evangelical map, see ID # 1060, Welt-Karte Der Mission.
