Thank you, Ralf! I have tentatively dated this map to “circa 1955”. Judging from the dates mentioned on Wikipedia’s page about the history of Berlin’s S-Bahn, it must be from after 1951/1952, when new stretches like Grünau—Königs Wusterhausen, Lichterfelde Süd—Teltow, Spandau West—Falkensee, Spandau West—Staaken, Jungfernheide—Spandau, and Schönhauser Allee—Pankow were inaugurated. The Strausberg—Strausberg Nord section (1956) is not yet depicted.
