Description: Large-format fold-out map of Antarctica, produced by the Cartographic Division of the National Geographic Society. The map opens to a very generous 29" x 36" and was published in September 1957 to coincide with the International Geophysical Year, when a dozen countries sent teams of researchers to study this vast continent at the bottom of the Earth. In addition to the numerous physical features identified on the map, it also provides capsule histories of the various exploring expeditions to venture into this challenging landscape, including those of Amundsen, Scott, Bellingshausen, Cook, Byrd, Bruce, Mawson, Weddell, Ross, Ellsworth, and Shackleton, whose ship Endurance has recently been found, 10,000 feet down in waters that are among the iciest on Earth. Condition: This map is in very good condition, bright and clean, with no marks, rips, or tears. It is blank on the back, with no printing on the reverse side. Please see the scans and feel free to ask any questions. This is an original, authentic 1957 National Geographic Society map, not a reproduction or modern reprint, and it is fully guaranteed to be genuine. Buy with confidence!
