Len:
 
Nothing odd north of Czechoslovakia.  Danzig is shown with a border around the area (from Gdynia to the west, and Elbing to the east).  Trieste lies fully within Italy.
 
Thanks for your cartographic/historical guidance...

Germany lost Breslau in 1945 while the Polish had their occupation
zone in Germany - so your map has to be prior to that. Do you see any
border markings probably not international in nature, but strange
- like a state, north of the Czech border covering an area halfway
towards Berlin, indicating a "Protektorat"?  If so, I could nail it
down a little more.  Is Danzig shown as a Gdansk or free territory?
(Freie Stadt) and what do you see for Trieste - a Zone A and a Zone B,
or no zone or lying fully in Italy?

Wroclaw, Poland is Breslau, Germany. And Spanish Morocco is marked
with Tangier in an "international zone."  From what I can tell, the
international zone went bye-bye in '56.  So... sometime between the
40's and 56?
