Product Features:

• Antique-style "executive" color palette
  
• All 50 states with insets for Hawai'ian Islands and Alaska plus inset showing relative size of Alaska
  
• Clearly defined state and country boundaries, cities, islands, national parks, and physical features
  
• Thousands of place names carefully and artfully placed to maintain legibility in heavily populated areas
  
• Background shows mountain ranges and valleys in subtle shaded relief with mountain ranges labeled
  
• Major water bodies including rivers, lakes, gulfs, bays, straits, and ocean bathymetry
  
• Transportation routes including interstate highways, major state routes, airports, waterways, canals, and ferries
  
• The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 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.

Satin Lamination features glare-reducing qualities that provide a soft sheen. A satin finish is best suited for backdrop prints and displays receiving indirect, bright lighting.

Ready-to-Hang maps have rails at the top and the bottom to keep the map flat against the wall with two loops on the top rail for easy hanging. A package of wall hooks and nails completes the set.

• Ready-to-hang, satin laminated paper, one-sided wall map.
