A reproduction of National Geographic's December 1943 world map, produced by the Society's Cartographic Department during the Second World War.
International boundaries are shown as of September 1939, and corner insets compare the alliances of the First World War and the Second World War. Decorative borders, a Pacific-centred Van der Grinten view and a table of geographical equivalents make this one of the most distinctive historic world maps in the National Geographic archive.
Printed to order from National Geographic's high-resolution artwork. Choose a paper print, a matt or gloss laminate for a durable, wipe-clean finish, or canvas for a premium display piece.

Gloss Laminate
Gloss laminate makes colours look more vibrant and stand out more, but is quite shiny (reflective). If you’re planning on using a marker of any sort, this is a better choice because it’s easier to clean. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Matte Laminate
Matte laminate has a smooth, non-reflective, very classy looking surface. I wouldn’t say it dulls colours, but it doesn’t make them ‘pop’ (I hate that I just used that word) in the way that gloss does. Matte can be drawn on with pencil (and erased), but is harder to clean if you use markers. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Canvas
Everything looks better on canvas! Something about the texture really makes prints look wonderful. It is quite expensive though. We use a very high quality 340gsm artistic matte canvas. Your canvas print will come rolled with a roughly 50mm white border to allow you to have it stretched or mounted however you wish.
