Interstates, Relief & Alaska Scale — United States of America Wall Map (1993)

A snapshot of America in the early ’90s, rendered with clarity and restraint. Published by National Geographic in September 1993 (updating the September 1987 edition), this U.S. sheet blends classic National Geographic colour with thousands of place names, expressive relief shading, and a refined transportation layer. Elegant insets for Alaska (including a landmass comparison to the contiguous 48) and Hawai‘i (both the main islands and the full chain) complete a design that’s as informative as it is beautiful—made to study, admire, and display.


More Than a Map – A Testament to History

This isn’t just wall art—it’s the nation’s modern network at a glance. Read Interstates and major roads, trace rivers and lakes, scan mountain ranges and elevations, and note ocean depth soundings along the coasts. Ideal for educators, planners, historians, designers, and collectors, it pairs perfectly with 1970s and 1980s U.S. maps for a compelling timeline display.

Hang it in studios, libraries, classrooms, museums, offices, or at home to invite reflection, study, and conversation.
