World Maps International Political Upside-down Wall Map LARGE ENCAPSULATED

The world with the south on top! – political map of the world with the continents turned up-side-down in an encapsulated version (136.5 x 101.5cm / 4ft 5’™’™ x 3ft 4’™’™ approx.). Colouring and cartography are identical to the Maps International series of political world maps, with bold bright colours, vivid relief shading and prominent country names. English versions of all city names are used throughout. Within USA, Canada, Brazil and Australia internal state or provincial boundaries are indicated. Central Pacific, from Alaska/Siberia to New Zealand, is repeated on both sides of the map for better presentation of that region.Clocks show time difference from GMT (but without the map indicating the exact geographical area covered by each time zone). A decorative panel under the map displays flags of various countries. It’™s interesting to see how both Russia and Canada appear much larger than on conventional world maps with the same Van der Grinten projection.* This upside-down version is also available on paper or with hanging strips – please click on the link above to see the full list of currently available titles.*LAMINATED and ENCAPSULATED WALL MAPS:*- *laminated* wall maps have a thin layer of plastic usually applied to the printed side only. They can be written on with suitable marker pens without any damage to the map but, unless laminated on both sides, they are not damp-proof.- *encapsulated* wall maps are sealed between two sheets of plastic. They are more rigid and heavier than laminated maps of the same size. They are damp-proof and do not crinkle in humid conditions. Encapsulation gives the map a shiny surface, similar to being displayed behind glass.- *please note:* many publishers and retailers often use these two terms interchangeably. Our map titles and descriptions follow the definitions provided above.
