Large Vintage School Wall Map
Map Of The World. Bacon's Excelsior Mercator's Projection. Circa 1930's
We have been fortunate to acquire a large map collection salvaged from a Grammer School closure. Many are stamped with the date of issue, during the fascinating inter-war period of the 1930's. National boundaries were in a state of flux,and the British Empire was in it's twilight years.
This is a huge Bacon's map,printed in 16 sections on a Linen backing.There are two re-enforced metal eyelets for wall hanging.
The main image is The World (a Mercator Projection) with three additonal inset maps. 'The World Isotherms', 'Mean Annual Rainfall & Ocean Traffic Routes'and 'The World Showing Isobars'.
