Lovely inspirational shots! It's great to see some photos that feed my map and globe obsession. Also glad to see my photo among your wonderful finds from flickr!
I looooove maps! Thank you for posting this. These are some very good ideas. And I thought I was clever 'cause I use old maps to line my dresser drawers . . . .
I have a big Map wall in my bedroom that has maps from Africa to Mississippi. I want to travel & i figured what a better way to find out where i want to go then to always have maps i can see the location! I tore up my atlas & also put this on my map wall. I figured that i wasn't learning anything with all those locations being closed up in a book. Thanks for the inspiration Cal
You can order unique, beautiful historical map facsimiles from the Royal Geographical Society in London – http://images.rgs.org/ for more details on sizes. They have over 1million maps in their collections. Alasdair

I've never been able to take a nice photo of it, but we have two lovely nautical maps that we cut up and framed in our hall.
