This special edition map commemorates the National Geographic Society's 125th Anniversary with a modern spin on classic map design. The map portrays a contemporary political world accompanied by two insets, showing the world as it appeared in 1888 and 1988 - the Society's founding and centennial years. The design features an attractive colour palette, clear borders, national capitals and major cities, airports, notable peaks, major rivers and lakes, and stunning ocean topography. This map makes for a beautiful object d'art as well as a wonderful conversation piece.
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.
