Does anyone have any relatively detailed map of the Panamanian town of
Colon, when it was surrounded by the Canal Zone? I heard but can't
confirm that the access roads to it from Panama proper were not Zone
territory - and if so, that would have made Colon other than an
exclave of Panama. The treaty establishing the zone didn't mention
access roads - only that the Zone would be a 10 mile wide swath 5
miles on either side of the Canal + the waters of Gatun lake to the
shore. I've got really weird but official maps of the shore borders,
but seek the one showing Colon with accurate borders

Thanks
