Thought you tore it up and reassembled. Was concerned with the amount of time on your hands.

You need to flip a few cards over the opposite way so all the city names are facing the same direction only then will it all line up right

I'm impressed that you solved the puzzle but it's been safe to leave camp for 71 years. The war is over.

Wait but why not put it on the back of the cards? It would be easier to read

Saw that too. You'd think they'd catch that.

Unless it references something historical that we are all ignorant about. Or maybe it's a mistake.

What? Is this from ww2? How could this have colors then?

TBH, it looks like you cleaned out the pipes and laid all the skunky hair on the cards.

I thought they might actually be from world war 2 and all the cards were damaged as hell from the age

The map shows the southern part of Baden-Württemberg, the federal state in the south west of Germany.

In the second picture on the rightmost heart at the bottom, you can see the area where I live. Very interesting to see that here.
