During the 1930s and 1940s, National Geographic designed several world maps using a projection that separated the eastern and western hemispheres. We have brought back this classic view of the world with modern cartography and elegant earth tones for a fashionably retro view of the world. This version is laminated—featuring a "write and wipe" surface and durable plastic covering.
National Geographic is a renowned authority in cartography. For 120 years the Society's maps have helped spread geographic knowledge around the globe.
