This map was produced in astonishing detail as a supplement to the January 1902 National Geographic Magazine and accompanies the southern Philippines map. Just four years earlier, the United States purchased the rights to the territory from Spain for $20,000,000, and this beautiful map shows the entire group of islands, along with a detailed inset of the Manila Bay area. Anyone interested in history or the Far East will find this map to be an excellent addition to your map collection.
The map can be printed on heavyweight 160 gsm paper or laminated. The paper version is perfect for framing under glass, and the laminated version is exceptionally hard-wearing, as we use a true encapsulation of two pieces of 80-micron gloss laminate.
Alternatively, we can supply this map on 395 gsm HP Professional Matte Canvas using pigment-based inks, making it highly durable and fade-resistant. The exceptional clarity of the printing makes this map a stunning addition to any room, and its high quality means that it will provide years of enjoyment.
The easiest way to hang your canvas map is with wooden hang rollers attached to the top and bottom. The top roller has a hanging cord so that you can hang it from a hook on the wall. The hang rails are lacquered in a natural timber colour.
Note: Please allow ten working days for delivery of hang-railed maps, as our framer needs to attach them.
