During the 1930's and 1940's, several National Geographic world maps were designed using a projection that separated the eastern and western hemispheres. National Geographic has brought back this classic view of the world with updated, modern cartography and an elegant earth-tone color palette. This new, yet fashionably retro, world map is the World Hemispheres.

The map is packaged in a two inch diameter tube with a label showing a thumbnail of the map with dimensions and other pertinent information.
