A Beautiful World-Map 1957 Nat Geo review by danny kalense on 8/31/2010I use the product to contemplate the world I was born into. The soft yet clear and powerful colors remind me of the period. As a political map- it shows a world already much changed. This is a picture of the world of Post Second World War- and following Cold War. A wonderful product.
