Wonderful map. Arrived in a protective clear tube. I really enjoy the level of detail (national monuments/parks are often identified on the map as well). I purchased this and a framed pebbled cork (from Board Dudes found on here: Board Dudes 35 x 46 Inches Dual Effex Premium Pebbled Cork Board with 2-Tone Frame (12784) ) to create a great family travel map for our home.
This is a fabulous map that can either be tacked up on the wall in the classroom or mounted in an expensive frame and still pull it off. The detail is pretty amazing as well, the cities are so on-point that even my tiny home town is listed. An easy diy project for the weekend I rubber cemented several cork board tiles to a piece of plywood, cemented the map to the top and polyurethaned it all. Add some stained and polyed decorative molding and wa la! You have an expensive looking piece of art ready to chart your journeys for less than $100.
I bought this map a few months back and love it! The map is detailed enough to be able to zero in on major cities and it has a sort of vintage look to it. It comes rolled up but flattens out nicely - hasn't curled up at the ends or anything. Just be aware that it doesn't come laminated. I framed mine up and backed it with homasote to be able to stick these handy pins in denoting different reasons for my travels there by color GEM Map Tacks, Plastic, Assorted, 3/8 Inch, 100/Box (MTA)
One of my cheapskate (or thoughtful if you're my mother) Christmas gift ideas was to Mod Podge a map to some corkboard, then adhere all that to a sheet of wood and frame it for my parents so they could stick map pins in all the places they've been or plan on going. This map was perfect for my project. Everything is clearly labeled, including all the national parks and whatnot, but it's not so in-your-face about it like other maps.What a weird thing to say about maps, huh?Anyway, I had hoped for my gift to be displayed on a wall, and I knew my parents wouldn't want some generic looking map with too many bright colors. This one will look great on any wall in their house. I have nothing bad to say about it.
I bought this poster and the World poster at the same time to hang on the office wall at home so we can tack the places we've been! We purchased a few poster frames and cork from our local craft store and tacking places has been a fun learning activity for our kids! My photo review of the posters might help to show the actual size.
This product has perfect quality. Good print, accurate information, beautiful color.It is lightly coated. I'd like to have it posted as long as it stands.
Very large, detailed map - bought through (listed seller) and it arrived in perfect condition! Great idea to hang this on a wall where kids walk by it...they might happen to learn a thing or two from it! Couldn't hurt. This particular one is going to the UK for relatives. Hopefully give them a good idea how vast the US really is.
I wanted a map to frame and hang in my living room. I like being able to reference places on the news as well as having a reference for conversations that involve traveling. (For some reason I have those conversations a lot.) But I also wanted something that DIDN'T look like it belongs in a 5th-grade social studies classroom. This map is perfect for that. It's very pleasing to the eye and feels more like a "grown up" map than most of the ones I've seen that use different solid colors to separate the states. It's also very nice to have the bordering parts of Canada and Mexico visible.The level of detail is very nice. I've lived in a few very small towns and most of them are actually listed on this map! The font choice is excellent as well.I will agree with another reviewer who said that it's somewhat difficult to find or follow the names of mountain ranges. That's really my only knock against it. To be fair though, there's only so much room, and I personally care more about being able to read the roads, towns, lakes and state names than the mountain ranges.
