World Classic Political Full-Size Wall Map (Dry Erase Premium Mounted)

Enjoy the accuracy and beauty of the latest world map from the cartographers at National Geographic. This map features the Winkel Tripel projection to reduce distortion of land masses as they near the poles. Features include subtle border coloring on land, and prevailing winds and ocean currents at sea. Separate insets show the North and South Polar Regions, world vegetation and land use, and world population density.

The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.7 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the frames can be much lighter and less expensive. Dry-Erase Lamination is a specialty laminate that allows for dry-erase markers to be used on the finished print and erased as desired.

Premium Mounts are mounted on foamcore, with edge taping. Foamcore is a board of polystyrene foam clad with an outer facing of white clay-coated paper on either side. It is the preferred medium for using map tacks and pins. Each premium mounted item comes with edge taping, hanging tabs, hangers, and nails for wall presentation.
