Description
This vintage map of the world was originally published in 1942 by the Geographia Map Company. The wall-sized map mural is available as removable wallpaper on repositionable adhesive wallcovering fabric or pre-pasted wallpaper. Explore the political world as it was in 1942 during World War II and the German occupation of European countries. Countries on the map are shown in contrasting colors using a classic pastel color palette. The map is extensively labeled with major cities, shipping routes, and railways; German occupied areas are displayed in broken color.

This antique reproduction map has been cleaned, restored, and digitally enhanced for the best print quality. Please note that some placename labels may not be legible due to the age of the map.
