Maps of Discovery - East & West mounted set. National Geographic Maps. In 1927, famed American painter N.C. Wyeth completed a series of five murals for Hubbard Memorial Hall, the National Geographic Society's first formal library. Called "The Romance of Discovery," the murals were flanked by highly illustrated maps of the eastern and western hemispheres showing the paths taken by some of the world's most significant explorers. The eastern hemisphere map is decorated with portraits of these men charting their courses. The western hemisphere features Poseidon and a mermaid keeping watch over the oceans. These two murals have been captured on paper for everyone to enjoy.
Each plaque measures 20" x 18". Available as an east + west set mounted on wood, or as individual east or west maps, either plain paper, or laminated.

World Upside-down Map - Original and classic version. ODT. Imported from Australia and laminated in the USA. Unique downunder viewpoint with cheeky Aussie humor. This map was created by Stuart McArthur of Melbourne, Australia. He drew his first South-Up map when he was 12 years old (1970). His geography teacher told him to re-do his assignment with the "correct" way up if he wanted to pass. Three years later he was an exchange student in Japan. He was taunted by his exchange student-friends from the USA for coming from "the bottom of the world."
It was then, at age 15, he resolved to one day publish a map with Australia at the top. Six years later, while at Melbourne University, he produced the world's first "modern" south up map and launched it on Australia day in 1979.

Peters Projection (Equal Area) World Wall Maps
World Peters Projection Map. 1:25,000,000. ODT, 2002. The Peters Projection World Map is one of the most stimulating, and controversial, images of the world.
When this map was first introduced by historian and cartographer Dr. Arno Peters at a Press Conference in Germany in 1974 it generated a firestorm of debate and it continues to have passionate fans as well as staunch detractors, as noted in its portrayal on The West Wing tv show.
The earth is round. The challenge of any world map is to represent a round earth on a flat surface. There are literally hundreds of map projections. Each has certain strengths and corresponding weaknesses. Choosing among them is an exercise in values clarification: you have to decide what's important to you. That is generally determined by the way you intend to use the map. The Peters Projection is an area accurate map, meaning the sizes of each land mass is accurate in relation to each other.
Available as a folded map or a laminated wall map. Size is 35" x 52".
