Beautifully rendered in antique parchment tones, this very special map won the Printing Industries of America’s 2001 Premier Print Award for “a unique ability to create visual masterpieces,” as well as the 2002 Best Reference Map Award from the American Congress on Surveying & Mapping. Detailed insets include information on vegetation, land use and population density. The map was created using Winkel Tripel projection, a technique which accurately renders a sphere on a flat surface to reduce any landmass distortion.
