A true depiction of how the world actually is, rather than how someone wanted it to be. Maps and globes are notoriously known for emphasizing the size and position of Europe and North America. See the actual shape of the Earth and where we fit on it. This unique map is a great educational tool for people of all ages. Mounted firmly on 1/4 inch foam board, the map is in perfect condition. No need for mounting gear as a stick pin will do. The dimensions are 45 inches X 35 inches. It's beautiful, and better yet, it's accurate. Original cost was $30 for the map and $80 to mount it.
