 Just what I wanted, a real classic August 20, 2008
This map hangs proudly in my office, and it is everything a good map should be: sharply detailed, accurate proportions to each continent, and a color scheme that makes differentiating between details intuitive. I personally really enjoy the aesthetics of this map and its 'aged' coloration. I framed it in a dark walnut frame that coordinates with the map very well. If you want a quality wall map with more muted colors, this is an excellent choice!
Our World at Your Fingertips August 15, 2008
Watching the Beijing 2008 Olympics opening ceremony, I realized I'd lost my geography skills and the world has changed since my last geography class (40+ years ago).
This is a beautiful, large (50x32), detailed map: subtle colors, major cities, terrain, antique feel, suitable for framing...
A must-have for all, but especially for families with children -- home-schooled or not (although it's not laminated). Your horizons will be heightened and you'll realize your place in the world. It helps bring perspective to global events. Our planet can seem small when seen in a book, on a TV screen, computer monitor, or cell phone...
Good price, excellent value, fast delivery and well packaged. With a few mouse clicks, you can have the world at your fingertips. Buy it now; you owe it to yourself.
Thank you for making it available, Amazon.
Good for Learning June 23, 2008
This map is incredibly large and the picture on it is great for learning more about the continents. The only trouble I'm having is that the paper is thin so I'm trying to find a frame for it, but it's difficult because of the map's size!
Great Buy and Educational June 14, 2008
This map is great. I love it. Now when I meet people from other country I can visualize where they are on the map. Con: Thin paper. I added reinforcement by tapping the edge with packaging tape. Still a great buy.
 review world map May 17, 2008
the map itself is nice, according to the picture. however, the packaging was not right, because i have received the map all crisped up.
