This special edition map commemorates the National Geographic Society's 125th Anniversary with a modern spin on a classic map design. The map portrays a contemporary political world accompanied by two insets, showing the world as it appeared in 1888 and 1988—the Society's founding and centennial years. The design features an attractive color palette, clear borders, national capitals and major cities, airports, notable peaks, major rivers and lakes, and stunning ocean topography. This map makes for a beautiful object d'art as well as a wonderful conversation piece
