Panama Canal 1899-1902 Wall Map - Published 1905 by National Geographic

The "Map Showing Location of Panama Canal, as Recommended by the Isthmian Canal Commission of 1899-1902" is a unique historical piece published in October 1905 with three articles on canals. One of the most significant engineering projects ever undertaken, the famed canal linking the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, was completed in 1914. This map makes a fine companion for the "Birds-eye View of the Panama Canal" map printed in 1912. 

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.
