Vintage National Geographic colours and spectacular detail accentuate this beautiful world map, first published in National Geographic Magazine in December of 1932, accompanying an article entitled, "The Story of the Map."
The 1932 World map features:
- International & Provincial Borders
- Countries, Provinces, States, Capitals and Cities
- Insets for North and South Polar regions
- Inset showing World Vegetation with Ocean Currents
- Inset showing World Population Density and Wind Currents
- Van der Grinten projection
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 all you have to do is put a hook on the wall. The hang rails come 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.
