Colorful and pleasing to the eye, yet has an "aged" look around the edges. Would be gorgeous with a wooden frame. very large (32"x50"). Very good details on physical features like rivers, mountain ranges, lakes. Paper is pretty thin.
Centered on Europe and Africa, with the Pacific Ocean split down the middle. This makes more sense anyway. Slight overlap (about 10degrees longitude) at the east and west edges of the map. Europe and the Middle east get pretty crowded and there aren't as many labels there, but the terrain deatures are still there.
Concerning distortion--I don't know anything about cartography, but for $10 who cares. You might want to consider the degree of distortion.
I posted this map right above kitchen table and use it very often, whenever a place gets mentioned that I'm not familiar with. and it makes a perfect conversation piece.

Great map. I glued two pieces of foam board together and then mounted map on it. Now I can place push pins in all of the places I have been. NOTE: Get map push pins, not the normal size ones.

I'm very pleased with my map, but I would like to mention that you can purchase a laminated one for just a few dollars more. I bought my map and then took it to staples to have it laminated, for the price I paid I could have bought the laminated map too, and still saved money. But the map is great, now I can look at places when I see them on tv or they come up in conversation.

I just bought this map for my house and I love it! The thing that makes it stand out among other maps is that each continent is equally proportioned. A lot of maps have the US in the middle and bigger than others. But this map is accurate in laying out the world. It is big, but not enormous. The paper is very nice and the graphics very sharp. I plan to laminate it and then put it up on a wall.

Bought this wall map on the strength of the Amazon reviewers' recommendations. Was not disappointed - this is a great map, just as everyone says here. Parchment-like paper is a little thin and could tear easily, but if you put some clear packing tape on the back (4 corners and top-center and bottom-center) all you'll need is 6 pushpins. Then you can still write on the map if needed. Happy trails.

I have bought 3 world maps, by far this is the best one, very nice colors and quality, gives an impression of old style maps, but with current political status.

Bigger is better, right? This map is great, we use it in our English as a Second language Program and we love it! Although the paper is somewhat thin, it still works.
