The plan, open on a wooden table, presents a detailed view of the \"Port de la Fontaine des Tuiles\" in Marseille, with the mention of \"chemin de Grande communication n°30 dit du Littoral\" (main road n°30, also known as the Coastal Road) at the top. Architectural elements, water surfaces, and port facilities are precisely represented with fine lines and handwritten legends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cartography reveals a port structure with dikes, quays, and protective works, illustrated by dotted lines and regular strokes. The mention \"Société Amicale Philanthropique de Pêche Lou Sard\" is clearly distinguishable, indicating the specific use of the site or the contracting authority of the time. The annotations specify water surfaces (\"22.50 x 60\"), land surface, as well as other technical measurements, all handwritten and typical of engineering plans from the 1930s-1940s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dominant colors are sober: cream paper, or yellowed by time, drawn in black ink and highlighted with red for important elements (landmarks, axes, dimensions). The graphic style, handwritten typography, and general presentation are characteristic of pre-war technical documents, created before the widespread adoption of modern reproduction processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe plan is presented flat, showing a slight central fold due to binding or archival storage. No reverse side or annotations on the back are visible in the photograph. The overall condition is legible, with some signs of use and a patina consistent with the age of the document, with no apparent tears in the visible area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe main legible inscriptions include: \"PORT DE LA FONTAINE DES TUILES\", \"S' Amicale Philanthropique de Pêche Lou Sard\", \"chemin de Grande communication n°30 dit du Littoral\", as well as various technical measurements and legends. The whole offers a faithful vision of a Marseille port development project from the 1930s-40s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed archival document, sold as is.

Philanthropic fishing societies, like \"Lou Sard,\" played a key role in the management of small ports and local coastal developments during the interwar period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAFW Reassurance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional packer, fast and secure shipping.
