- Distance Map Centered on St. Louis
- Description
- This map was used by a St. Louis man as part of fallout shelter drills with his family. The map is based on the idea that a nuclear strike in the area would be targeted at the city of St. Louis, and the rings around the city indicate mileage from the city. Each ring formed a zone indicating a certain level of danger and radioactive fallout.
